to the kids but not funny to Snape and Lupin surely knew that.>>>

The Sergeant Majorette says

Oh, it was classy, all right. Classy, but really, really mean. This 
is more *my* Lupin, and probably more the Lupin that James and Sirius 
knew. His mild manner hides a toughness and a sense of heedless 
mischief that made him a real Marauder and not just a hanger-on like 
Peter. He knew what Snape endured at Hogwarts, and he also knew what 
Snape inflicted at Hogwarts, both in his student days and as a 
teacher terrorizing hapless innocents like Neville Longbottom. 

The Lupins of the world are the seeming geeks or nerds that 
mysteriously never get beaten up, and nobody can figure out why the 
jocks are leery of him.
