I'm a very big fan
Calling your sister sweetie is weird.
A girl calling her sister "sweetie" is kind of normal
Ahh, you're right. I might have misgendered the GP in my mind.
Making her think that there's a scary stranger outside of her bathroom window as punishment for a completely banal offense is very normal, though 🤷
Did you have siblings? Because yeah, it kinda is normal. We torture each other, for little or no reason, while growing up. Totally normal.
Disregard if you grew up in one of those mythical "functional" families I've heard about.
Encouraged even.
Seems like the poster is from the UK, where this normal.
In fact in some parts of the country you might even have a complete stranger call you "my lover"
its called having a healthy relationship with a member of your family. how is it weird ?
The word "sweetie" must have different implications across our cultures. Where I am (USA), it's more likely to apply to a romantic partner or a child than a sibling. At least, that's my experience. Someone else mentioned this use (sibling) wouldn't be unusual in the UK and I can accept that.
well the assumption is that op is one of the dozens of people NOT from the US...
I prefer to think of the creator of the meme as an American and all the awkwardness and sexual undertones are fully intended!
Did you also place a big spotlight outside her bathroom window?
perhaps it was one of those giant gas balls in the sky... what is it called again, the sun ?
Or a street light.
