okay so the family tree goes crazy, look:

  Glib::Object
  +----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
       +----Gtk2::Object
            +----Gtk2::Widget
                 +----Gtk2::Container
                      +----Gtk2::Box
                           +----Gtk2::HBox

it's giving "six generations deep and every single one of them ate" 👑
