Neri:
Yes, now it really makes sense.

But still, with wereolf!Lupin, vampire!Snape, half-giant!Hagrid and 
half-hag!Umbridge it starting to look like being just plain human is 
a disqualifier for a teacher at Hogwarts.

I guess Prof. Flitwick could be part house-elf, Sprout a part-Goblin, 
DD a part-bumblebee and Trelawney clearly has a just a tiny bit of 
centaur blood which explains her erratic prophetic performances. But 
what is McGonagall? Could she be the granddaughter of the Loch-Ness 
kelpie?

And of course, since they're all apparently ashamed of their mixed 
origin, they must be all evil. A frightening thought.
