Characters You Hate

No: HPFGUIDX 51096

The character I find myself twitching with barely supreseed dislike
when I see is....(puts on bullet proof vest and helmet, dons shiled
and hides behind ramparts) ...is Dumbeldore.  

I know, I know, he is a good man and I definately do not support the
"Evil Dumbledore theory", but aspects of his personality annoy me,
even though I respect him and believe in his ideals and superiority to
other wizards like Fudge.
Things that tick me off (I don't have my books so this is from memory
and I'm paraphrasing)
1. His arbitary awarding of house points at the end of book 1 (see my
earlier post for fuller expl.)
2. His failure to explain why he was n't punishing Sirius in a more
obvious and meaningful way to Snape in MWPP days, possibly leading/
contributing to his becoming a DE.
3. The way he appears to laugh at other characters expense - even
though it is n't malicious it irks me. E.g Snape at the end of book 3
and Harry practically all the time.
4. The things he seeems to do, or let happen that are explained simply
in cannon, but leave me thinking "eh?!" like employing Lockhart as
DADA teacher. I know there were n't any other applicants, but could
n't he have done it himself or given another teachers or teachers
extra duties. Maybe he could 've enlisted a ghost to teach the non
practical bits...Anyway, just strat seems negligent to me.
