Wow. That’s a lot of things you have to know to get the joke.

It is fairly common mythological knowledge, basically only one tier down from "Werewolves transform at the full moon" level stuff.

That iron repels fairies? That was completely new to me. I kinda think you have to come from a culture with a lot of fairy lore to know that.

I didn't about the iron repels fairies thing before seeing this, but I DID know about the mushroom circle = fairies thing.
