Apparently those memories were in the "adults-only" section of the Pensieve

So...it appears Snape was guilty of a hate crime:

In front of a full house of hardcore Potter fans at Carnegie Hall in New York, Rowling, sitting on the stage on a red velvet and carved wood throne, read from her seventh and final book, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," then took questions. One fan asked whether Albus Dumbledore, the head of the famed Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, had ever loved anyone. Rowling smiled. "Dumbledore is gay, actually," replied Rowling as the audience erupted in surprise. She added that, in her mind, Dumbledore had an unrequited love affair with Gellert Grindelwald, Voldemort's predecessor who appears in the seventh book.

Man, I love J.K. Rowling. No sooner has the hype for Deathly Hallows died down when she finds a way to bring the franchise back into the headlines. If this little strategy yields a significant rise in book sales, look for the following revelations in coming weeks:

- Harry had a three-way with Cho and Ginny Weasley
- Minerva McGonagall seduced Ron (you could totally see it coming during the dance scenes in Goblet of Fire)
- Hermione aborted Viktor Krum's baby
- Like a certain other evil overlord, Voldemort is rumored to have only one testicle
- Harry's foot was in the crease when Hogwart's won the Quidditch Cup

Anybody else?

It won’t matter if Harry’s foot was in the crease. They’ll just change the rules the next year so it won’t matter.

Remember, it’s not wrong if the heroes do it!

I was actually more annoyed that Neville Longbottom married Hannah Abbott according to JK Rowling..Hannah Abbott? are you kidding me? Why not poor Luna?

Judy—

Are you kidding? Obviously Luna’s a lesbian. Who else wears earrings that look like turnips?

(I blame it on her mother blowing herself up. And the lack of fashionable shoe stores in that neck of the woods.)
