You can discover the weirdest things digging into your family history.
For example:
Apparently, I have a great-great-uncle who was cursed by a witch after stiffing her on the repayment of one-dollar loan. (Why he borrowed a dollar from a witch in the first place is not recorded.)
I also have a great-grandfather, a beekeeper by profession, who’s alleged to have spontaneously combusted one day while tending his bees.
As far as I can tell, these events are completely unrelated – the two men are on different branches of the family tree, and never met – but I can’t help but imagine that somewhere out there, there’s a witch with unbelievably bad aim.
If we went home from our 9 – 5 jobs with 3 – 4 hours of extra work every day, we’d lose our minds. But we do it to high school kids and see absolutely no problem with it.
Let’s not forget the part-time jobs they often have to do on top of that.
I’m so excited that we finally get to meet the guy who scatters the rose petals in magical girl anime. His work in Sailor Moon S was some of his finest. I’m a huge fan.
