Why Snape Joined the DE - a bit FILKISH - and very silly

It seems to me the board is getting very serious indeed. Last night 
I was watching the movie "Trainspotting" and a very wierd train of 
thought came to me.

WARNING: If you have not seen the film "Trainspotting" then

a.  This will make no sense at all

b.  Go and see it! Now! Blackest of black humour.


OK then.  The following stream of consciousness is Snape's at 
approximately (conjectural) age 19...

Choose white magic, choose Hogwarts, choose Gryffindor
Chose the order of the Phoenix, choose a ****ing big magic wand
Choose sneakoscopes, foe glasses, omnioculars and time turners
Choose potions, herbology and transfiguration
Choose your own vault at Gringotts
Choose a flying car and choose your friends
Choose dress robes and a personal owl
Choose a racing broom in a variety of finishes
Choose flying that broom in mind numbing spirit crushing quidditch 
games
Choose dying at the end of it all, staring at the wall in the Spell 
Damage ward at St Mungo's, nothing but an embarrassment to the 
selfish brats you spawned to replace yourself
Choose your future.
Choose white magic.
But why should I want to do anything like that?
I chose not to choose white magic, I chose something else.
And the reasons?
There are no reasons.
Who needs reasons when you've got the Dark Mark?

Who apologises to Danny Boyle and Ewan McGregor...

And to anyone else who thinks an apology is due...

Couldn't resist it.
