Er, I agree very much with the pet theory, but I must say it would be 
rather cruel to rip someone's heart out with a melon scoop. Yuk.
As for Snape taunting Hermione, I can imagine he's like any abused 
human being - he's repeating a pattern. Someone beats you at home - 
you go beat up someone else. Snape is bitter, let's face that. He's 
not satisified with his job, he's pretty much resented all over the 
castle, he's got greasy hair and has to live with threaths of melon 
scoops. He's picking on the weak (well... sort of), paying back, 
whatever - he's acting childish. He needs a good kick in the ass and 
a hug and perhaps a big kiss. Thank you. :)
