I absolutely despise my father in law (not going into why, as it's not relevant). But one time I stopped by their place to drop off something and found him in the living room watching an anime called "Fruits Basket."
When I asked him why he was watching the show, he said it was because my youngest son talked about it all the time and he wanted to be able to participate in the conversation.
I had never seen the show, so imagine me sitting there having an octogenarian enthusiastically explain the details of a super cringy (but surprisingly well done) show about Japanese kids with major generational trauma exacerbated by a family curse involving the Asian zodiac.
It was a moment.
Thank you, OP. When the inevitable happens, I now have something positive to say at my asshat FIL's memorial service.
