Similarly, in Sluggy Freelance's parody (sluggy.com) headmaster 
Gandledorf says that house Wunnybun is "where we put all our bad guys 
for simplified bookkeeping"

for the record, the other houses: "The Overly Curious" 
Poinginoh/Ravenclaw (mascot is a ferret - wonder if Draco would end up 
in there), "The Noble but Ravenous" Snackewyrm/Gryffindor, and "The 
hard-working but pungent" Pooperscoop/Hufflepuff.
