I had a Tinder date with a lady whose favorite author was some Latin American magical realist I had never heard of. Sadly, he wasn't Mexican and I almost slipped up and said "Mexican magical realism" immediately.

I'm not entirely certain Onstad isn't writing wikipedia pages for literal rodeo bulls. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodacious_(bull) quote:Bodacious was dubbed "The World's Most Dangerous Bull" due to his habit of jerking guys down and then head butting them.[1] Many cowboys tried to ride Bodacious in his career. And many of the ones who did attempt a ride fell victim to his head butt and no longer had the face God gave them. Unfortunately, statistics were not as well maintained at that time. Generally, records show that Bodacious was attempted more than 130 times. Some say 8 and others say 10 times did he give up a qualified ride. quote:The first man known to own Bodacious was Bill McCann.[5] He would always laugh when he recalled how he sold the most famous bull in bull riding history for pennies on the pound. McCann was in the business of buying calves from Merrick Ranch. He and his co-owner, Bill, owned Geary Livestock Auction. They would buy from Merrick and then sell from the auction. Merrick Ranch was well known for its high value Simbray bulls and the robust calves they produced. When he and Bill got the call that there were 300 head available for purchase, they reacted swiftly. It was steer cutting time. McCann loaded his trailer up and drove to Oklahoma's Arbuckle Mountains. Bill culled about 16 of the fattest Merrick bull calves. His buyers wanted smaller calves, that, when castrated, would not drop a lot of weight. Plus, he liked their looks. These were eye pleasing cattle with gray-blues, creams, and one yellow. His buyers would want these calves. Well, those were good days; now the Merrick Ranch is no longer in existence.[5]

This random tweet came up over in PYF: https://twitter.com/botnikstudios/status/940627812259696643 and now I'm sad that Onstad didn't use the phrase "Magic: it was something that Harry Potter thought was very good" at some point, especially since he literally had Harry Potter fanfic appear multiple times over the years

Not all of them, the "we've got manes dogg" would have worked just fine even if they were in fact other species, as evidenced by them trying to get Cornelius to wear one.
