Summary: A fanfic parody ... or parody fanfic ... or whatever you'd call it when Hogwarts meets The Colbert Report.

Squeeing: This one hurts my head, but I haven't laughed so hard in ages. There's some fanfics that horrify me based on the very concept, but this was handled with such wide range of absurdity that it worked.

Excerpt: "Textbooks are for facts. Forget facts, Miss Granger. Facts are what got us into this mess. Facts are the antithesis of Truthiness. A fact, you know in your brain. Truthiness comes from the heart and the gut."

"And the balls?" Seamus Finnegan blurted, then covered his mouth as Lavender and Parvati made offended-old-maid noises.

"And the balls, damn straight," Professor Colbert said without batting an eye. "You've got that right, sonny-boy. These so-called Dark wizards? All brains. No balls. They're all cowards, and so they hide it with a bunch of evil."
