obscure or not obscure? That is my question.

Isn't the Thoth Tarot deck an obscure reference?

I thought it was but when I posted this to facebook with the phrase "I know most of my friends won't get this, but it is hilarious if you do." my aunt got really pissy and replied with this: "I wish you'd stop announcing that you think most of your friends aren't as smart as you, or haven't had the same education."

It's not obscure to me, but I don't know how many of your friends are interested in tarot. Its obscurity is relative to your familiarity with the occult, I'd say, and I think your aunt may have overreacted a bit there.

And I was expecting my family to have pretty much zero interest in the occult. Maybe Aunt Alice got into it more than I know. We don't really talk a lot. I also thought she overreacted. ;-)

Nice icon.
