Incest is fucking relative!

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 53 points 3 months ago (6 children)

Pun aside, on a socio-cultural and legal level yes it is relative, it all depends how far separated you are on the cousin tree and what is legally and culturally acceptable. Like in many Middle Eastern countries first cousin marriages is straight up normal and not considered incest.

It's legal in a lot of states in the US

Icks me out, but I can’t find any moral fault.

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 months ago (5 children)

I definitely get why it picks you out.imagine banging your cousin without one of your parents watching while you do it. Gross

[–] Tundra@sh.itjust.works 50 points 3 months ago (4 children)

can you explain this to a brit

[–] flonflons@lemmy.world 140 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Typically the joke is that you escape family on Thanksgiving with your cousins to go on a walk and get high before returning. This twists it and adds incest

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 47 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I didn't know we were supposed to get high! We just got out of the family for a while

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 60 points 3 months ago (8 children)

I didn't get high, I didn't get laid... goddamn, how much of life did I miss?

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 months ago

It's never too late to follow your dreams!

Wait, seriously? You guys didn't realize that you were supposed to smoke weed on "the walk"? That's hilarious.

Sure! Thanksgiving is principally a national holiday in the U.S. that traces its roots to religious and historical traditions from England, particularly during the early 17th century colonies in the New World.

It’s meant to be an autumn harvest holiday. The apocryphal story is that Puritans sat down with Native Americans to feast and celebrate goodwill between their respective groups but the evidence for this is suspect at best.

Over time, Thanksgiving became more popular and involves heavy travel during the (pre-) holiday season. It’s a chance for families to enjoy each others’ company before Christmas and feast on roast turkey and a variety of vegetable dishes.

Hope this helps! Go with God.

No joke we have some in our family who are second cousins. They're known as the inbreds.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)
