    Cassandra… in Greek mythology was a Trojan priestess dedicated to the god Apollo and fated by him to utter true prophecies but never to be believed. In modern usage her name is employed as a rhetorical device to indicate a person whose accurate prophecies, generally of impending disaster, are not believed.

    For those who were also wondering

      I’d also suggest Mythos by Stephen Fry. Good book for someone who would like to read about Greek mythology.

      Theres no way her family are both smart enough to both dub her Cassandra (given that reference), but also not able to comprehend the reasons behind what she says…

      No, no, she’s the last human in the universe. A bitchy trampoline.
