The irony of "They also carried knobbly sticks, used for hitting each other while the teachers weren't looking" just slays me. Yeah, unlike Harry's school where they carry magical sticks used for jinxing each other while the teachers aren't looking.
Mike Teevee, anyone? Hah, I was actually watching "Willy Wonka" the other day, and I couldn't help but notice how much Willy Wonka reminds me of Dumbledore, oddly enough. They both dress in purple velvet and spout these eccentric phrases, and meanwhile they have a sort of laissez-faire attitude towards the kids they're in charge of except for the one favored kid who is the epitome of all good. Like sistermagpie points out, it's the whole "you took real good care of that August kid!" thing.
