in Turkish it actually isn’t far too uncommon to call your little brother ‘son’ (oğlum) haha
or your friends (merabaa!)
I just say “sister dearest”. In every situation.
Stop calling me sister
okay sister dearest
Richard, honey, I’m your wife
Weird, I’ve always called my sister ‘sis’ and my sister calls me ‘bro’
bold of you to assume the conversations i have with my siblings include coherent words of any kind
I just use my sibling’s first name most of the time.
Same, but every year, they get a shorter and a longer nickname.
Oh I literally almost never use my sister’s name. Like not when I’m talking to her and also even if I’m talking to other people I’ll just say my sister. Sometimes I say my big sister which confuses people because I only have one.
me too
My sister started calling me “little brother” about the time I got taller than her. Before that we were just using first names.
i have a lot of siblings, and the only time ive ever called any of them “sis” or “bro” is when my older step brother and i make fun of the “step bro” memes
make fun of
Uh huh. 🧐
My family has fully adopted the Buster Bluth, “Hey brother”, “hey sister”, “hey cousin”.
complete with massage?
you can always tell a Milford man
“You’re my present this year”
Is this an incest joke?
I love the implication that there is no “real coffee” in west Africa, despite it being in the coffee belt (in contrast to the USA)
fucking hilarious
Aw man, I love how you just said “extended cut”. It took me a looooong time to realize it’s a parody.
Is it, though?
I recommend the cj the x video on it.
Based CJ the X enjoyer
I love their videos, insanely chaotic and just all around a brain massage
There is a Folgers ad that is written by people who do not have siblings, and performed by actors who want to fuck each other.
Imagine being their significant others watching that ad.
Fun Fact: Coffee brother got a part on Castle Rock where he bangs his adopted sister.
I knew this would be here before I got a chance.
I pretty much always answer phone calls from my other (also adult) siblings by saying “Heya sister/brother”
I have two sisters and I’ve called them “sis (insert sister name)” since so young that when I was about 4 someone asked my sister’s name and I said “sis Karol” as if sis was part of her name lol. Only one note, I said “mana” instead of sis, I translated it to sis here because it is pretty much the same meaning in all ways
What’s the language ?
Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese more specifically
ah, right, ok
Mana might be short for hermana since she said sis instead of sister. Maybe Spanish.
Almost! It’s Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese more specifically!
Weird. I greet mine like Mufasa on the edge of the cliff. “BROTHER!”
I have yet to be thrown to my doom.
My brother and I greet each other by straight-up shouting each other’s names. Sometimes we go back and forth in increasingly-angry tones, before finally ending with a sweet and gentle, “… hi.”
My brother always says “hey little sister” to me though…
that’s kinda sweet
Unless if they’re actually a brother.
maybe they’re just very supportive
Good to know!
Hello friend
Hello to you as well my friend.
Hello friendos.
And then you got warhammer 40k writers
Yeah the primarchs do it, and it’s kinda weird. But they are inhuman monsters that have to serve as generals and politicians, so I forgive them.
When space Marines do it the it’s kinda like how priests refer to each other as brother, but also battle brother is a rank.
I think it is also there to make things seem more theatric/dramatic. Like just how many books start with a dramatis personae? We’re not reading about people, we’re reading about characters in a space opera. No matter how you look at it, it’s still pretty silly.
Hail, Honorable Battle Brother! Holy Terra calls for the aid of our chapter!
(I actually know very little about WH40K beyond what one can learn from AlfaBusa in TTS)
7 out of 8, if you didn’t say you weren’t in the larger 40k community I would have thought that you were.
It’s gone full circle and there’s a 40k version:
