Okay I know that I should just learn to control myself but.

Just having a conversation with a family member. S/he was complaining about a recent weight gain (due to meds s/he’s taking) and how it makes him/her have such a low self esteem and how nobody understands. Meanwhile I’m thinking “Yeah, you’re the one who called me Tubbo and Lardy since I was five when I was normal weight… I think I understand how that feels”. Not that I would ever actually say that out loud. Then s/he commented on how s/he envies my baldness, because sometimes his/her hair bugs him/her so much s/he just wants to shave it all off. For this one I couldn’t hold my tongue. I basically said “You say that, but if it came down to it, if you really wanted to be bald, you’d have shaved it by now. The discomfort, pain, embarassment, the constantly having to explain yourself? You are so not down with that.”
I love my family. I love love love my family. I love this particular family member fiercely. Sometimes though I think that if it weren’t for DNA testing you’d never know we were related.
