Harry is an ungratful spoiled brat. Was: Snape is evil

I'm not quoting anybody... is that ridiculously arrogant? I hope 
not. Anyway......

I admit I'm not at all sure about the Snape thing and look forward 
to some more sheddage of light upon the subject in further books.

That said, however, I have a STRONG hunch that Snape has been acting 
a good deal of his maliciousness. If he were fair, decent, and un-
horrible to Harry and the other Gryfffindors (to say nothing of 
generous or affectionate) the Slytherin kids would not like him, 
thus their parents (notably Malfoy) would not like him, thus he 
would lose his position as head of Slytherin or at the very least be 
mistrusted by the Slytherins. To do this would be to forfeit a HUGE 
advantage both as a spy in Voldy's camp and as a confidante and 
hopefully/possibly a redeemer of the Slytherin children, who face 
rather the same fate of Mafia children; it's hard to turn away from 
something evil that is as deep-rooted in the family/social culture 
as that.

He's probably not the nicest person anyway; his grumpiness and anti-
social behavior are probably just a part of him, but this theory 
would explain his blatantly cruel and deeply unfair behavior. Also, 
there is already evidence that he can act unconcerned and dismissive 
on demand; his reaction to Harry's cryptic yell in OoP was perfectly 
in character; so much so that Harry did not even detect it, even 
though it was perfectly obvious Snape would have to feign ignorance 
or Umbridge would get suspicious.

There, I'm done.
