Patrilineal Ancestry Isn't What It Used To Be


It is very tempting, when considering possible crossovers to write about, to look for characters with the same last name as the Daria character you are writing about, then work out how they could possibly be related to your central figure. (This works for everyone except a Morgendorffer.) For example, could Sandi Griffin be related to Peter Griffin of Family Guy? Though fun, the idea is a little sexist because you're talking only about relatives on Sandi's father's side, not her mother's, since we don't know her mother's maiden name and making up a maiden name is kind of like cheating, sort of.

Still, as long as we're being sexist, we may as well push the Griffin family envelope on Tom Griffin's side and see what we get. Oops, Roentgen beat everyone to the crossover. I would love to see more of that one.

A few other interesting fictional Griffins will be named later for interested writers. Some of them are very interesting indeed.
