Your family's Cousin Eddie

[Mysterious F.]

You know what I'm talking about, the family member who is either a total idiot or a donkey (or both) that you have to spend the season with because he or she is your family.

As for me, my uncle (from my step-father's side) is at the very top of my "People I Loathe" list. He's an obnoxious, loudmouth tool who has no manners at all, he often gets drunk, clearly has very little love for both his wife and daughter (the latter of which I also dislike), and he's probably the biggest idiot I've ever met. I'd just LOVE to rid the world of that monstrosity. Once I'm up and out of my parent's house, I'll make sure to never meet him again.

Everyone.




Then again, I have asocial tendencies and mood swings, so....

I would have to say my Mother's sister-in-law. Not my Dad's sis, she's cool. My uncle's wife. She's a stuck-up, pompus little biggot with no regard for anyone except those of the upper class. And she's in middle class! She doesn't even regard her own family as "acceptable", and she raised her flippin daughters to act that same way to everyone, including themselves. I wouldn't mind if she shipped herself and those teenage bats to Russia! THAT'S WHERE THEY BELONG!

[Hi no Seijin]

I recommend Northern Siberia for all of your shipping-away-of-highly-unpleasant-relatives needs.

They sound like characters from a book.

Jeeze, everyone I know is a media reference to you! And what book?

Northern Siberia sounds like a good choice, I'll agree.

[Hi no Seijin]

No, I mean they sound like they could be characters from a book.

Oh. I don't know, it seems like everyone on my Mother's side of the family is messed up. Her mother is an egotistical racist with a belief of the literal interpretation of the bible, her father is on the recieving end of a dominant marriage and votes the opposite of his wife's choice for the heck of it, her sister is okay; just married the wrong donkey, divorced, and now lives with a boyfriend with an uncontrollable ego (bless his soul). Anyway, her younger brother works backstage of a rock band (not good enough to remember the name), her older brother married the demons I mentioned earlier, and all my aunts and uncles have offspring, most of them dumb enough to marry all the wrong people (Go figure.). And this may sound stereotypical, but every one of these messed up reletives are nicer when inebriated.
As a result, my mother looks at me as the saving grace for the bloodline, saying "whatever you do, don't marry a (female dog)."
My Dad's side of the family, for some reason, has basically no problems with this sort of thing, and here's hoping I'm not the one to end that fine streak.

Whew, I'm glad I finally got that out! :)
