The Weird, Wonderful, and WTF World - Friday, First Period [09/06].
Lotta classes meeting in front of the portalocity office this semester! You loved to see it! And that was absolutely where Summer's class would be gathering this week and probably most weeks, and she grinned easily at everyone as they gathered.
"So, hey," she said. "Welcome to the class where I'm going to show you some really weird, some really wonderful, and some really what-the-fuck things about this planet for a whole semester. That's a pretty broad range of topics, I know, but I hope you won't be disappointed. Today, though, we're going to be leaning into the wonderful to get started, so I don't scare too many of you off right out the gate. Well, wonderful, unless you're allergic to cats, in which case, enjoy the what-the-fuck, I guess. Because we're going to be hopping on over to Aoshima in the Seto Inland Sea of Japan, which is best known as one of that country's most premiere cat islands."
You're welcome, Jon.
"It's a tiny little fishing island with right around 200 hundred cats and significantly fewer people. The cats were brought in to help with the mice, and clearly stayed for the island's abundance of delicious food. There's really not a whole lot to do on Aoshima, it's a pretty quiet place, but that's fine, because we're just going to go and do our introductions surrounded by cats! So let's just get going and we'll continue from there!
"I mean," she added, "unless you are allergic to cats and want to just sit this one out. That, like, would be totally valid."
