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

I pretty much always answer phone calls from my other (also adult) siblings by saying "Heya sister/brother"

My brother always says "hey little sister" to me though...

Unless if they're actually a brother.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

My older brother and I never greeted each other except with nonverbal communication, IE hitting each other.

Oh Mein Bruder

Ah, Kwiatz

Doctor?

Those, all the time.

Hello friendos.

My bro used to call me shitpants (in German) and I callt my cousin lovingly "little shitpants" Also been called clevershit a lot by my siblings (which was fair ig.) But when things got tough they had my back.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Pantshitter, mein Froind. Nix shit pants. Klugscheißer ist aber auch hübsch.

All my siblings are way older than me(only lived with one for 4 years), and every one of them besides my sister has greeted me as little shit at some point.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 13 hours ago

Based CJ the X enjoyer

I love their videos, insanely chaotic and just all around a brain massage

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)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Aw man, I love how you just said "extended cut". It took me a looooong time to realize it's a parody.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

Is it, though?

[–] [email protected] 46 points 21 hours ago

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.

Me and my sister call each other “trash” (sounds better in our language). We constantly make jokes about the other being trash (I.e “I gotta take the trash out” with a subsequent “why do you need to go out?”) etc.

We’re in our 20s

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Me and my brother call each other trash in English.

And then you got warhammer 40k writers

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

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)

[–] UndercoverUlrikHD 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

The oat pig videos keep living rent free in my head anytime I hear a space marine/primarch call someone brother.

Me, calling my sister:

"Hey."

No response

"HEY!"

No response

"HEY, DICKLIPS!"

"What?"

I call both of my siblings shitass (or poopbutt when their kids are around) because my dudes guess what they do with their asses

Have you seen Reservation Dogs?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Weird. I greet mine like Mufasa on the edge of the cliff. "BROTHER!"

I have yet to be thrown to my doom.

I don't think I've ever called my brother "bro". I call my friends "bro" all the time.

I just use my sibling's first name most of the time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

My sister started calling me "little brother" about the time I got taller than her. Before that we were just using first names.

Luckily, though an only child, I had plenty of friends with siblings and I quickly caught on to that 'sis' or 'bro' was never used in anything except the most facetious fashion.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

How do you call your cousins?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 13 hours ago
[–] [email protected] 65 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We just called each other cunts
