Dalafíflaþáttr (‘the story of the fools from the valleys’) in which one particular family is so miserly that they prefer to kill themselves than see their wealth spent on hospitality. In this tale, the family members kill themselves by jumping off a cliff which the saga calls the Ættarstapi or Ætternisstapi (“dynasty precipice”), a word which occurs in no Old Norse texts other than this saga.

Funny how this archetype has existed forever across many cultures

“Nah, I don’t think I’m going to do it.”

Ah I’ve seen this in Midsommar, thought it was completely made up. Still a shit movie
