Clicked on the link since the thumbnail showed a flowchart (I like them), and got to learn quite a bit. Sad that samurai is obsolete but glad that body snatcher and slave catcher are as well.
I got a nice chuckle out of match maker, never thought of it in this manner, and will never not think about it whenever someone says anything about matchmaking.
Also chuckle worthy, “Flowchart to determine if an occupation should be included in the list of obsolete occupations”, and the first decision box is “Is occupation obsolete?”.
