Every Sorting Hat quiz I've ever taken has put me in Hufflepuff. When I was younger I used to wish it was Slytherin or Ravenclaw, because they were the cool Houses, but now I know better. Honesty, loyalty, justice, dedication—Hufflepuffs kick ass.
(A lot of these quiz things had questions like "Do other people respect/look up to you?" "Do you get described as 'talented'?" and, um. Yes? GOODNESS KNOWS WHY. It's not like I actually spend my free time doing anything but reading bad fanfic and looking at pretty pictures, and I am pretty sure my only actual talent is remembering hanzi/kanji. How these are assets in anything but fandom and linguistics, I do not understand. I should probably get kicked out of Hufflepuff for not fulfilling the 'hard work and dedication' requirement.)
Some of the questions on one I happened to take* yesterday were actually enlightening, though. A bunch of questions about stress and breaking down under it, and then at the end they snuck in one about "do you consider yourself emotionally stable?" And yes, yes I do, even though I start crying at just about anything, because none of it really sticks for long and I'm totally okay after a while. I mean, I break down a lot but it's nothing serious?
*I totally did not go around taking a bunch of sorting hat quizzes just so I could say they all put me in Hufflepuff. Really.
(Btw, I'm beginning to think I should re-keyword this icon to Jin The Hipster. He liked wearing glasses before they were cool!)
