[WP]: Leading people is like training dogs - you can't just make them do what YOU want them to do if they don't want to. You find a guard dog to guard, a retriever to fetch, a shepherd to herd. And you have just found an excellent bull to set loose in a china shop.	18
[WP]: You wake up to 23 estonian university students throwing a party in your house. You have no idea how they got in. Your dog likes them. Your town doesn’t even have an university.	18
[WP]: And just when you thought your day couldn’t get any worse, your boss recognises you as you run down the street, pursued by a flock of growling and barking parrots	17
[WP]: Most villains deliberately set themselves up for failure, they don't intend to win. They make themselves hurt people for self-sabotaged causes they didn't plan for. You're not a hero, you are a therapist who specifies in problematic patients like these.	16
[WP]: Dogs and children can be managed with the same rules. Encourage and reward good behaviour, ignore and distract from bad behaviour. Household spirits can be managed just the same. You're not an exorcist, you are a professional spirit therapist.	16
[WP]: You kiss a frog for some bizarre reason, perhaps on a whim. The frog turns into a beautiful young man who instantly curses you out and demands you undo that RIGHT NOW.	16
[WP]: You have just discovered this thing apparently called "money". You don't know what it does, yet, but apparently these humans will do almost anything to obtain it.	16
[WP]: Immortality can get boring, so over time the network has started arranging an ”exchange student” -program to alleviate the ennui. You have just signed up as a host, and your first exchange guest is a 16th-century korean warlord	15
[WP]: ”Microscopic” doesn’t mean invisible, it means too small to be seen. There used to be a thing called ”the microscope” that let you see them. Your grandmother saw one once, as a little girl. The elders born before ”the blast” knew many things.	14
[WP]: You wake up in the middle of a field with no memory of how you got there, covered in scratches and bruises, with a big bow around your neck. There's a note on it, saying "HARMLESS"	14
