brandywine28I'm torn, y'all. My last entry was all ruminations on my mom's side of the family, too, and I definitely don't want that to become a recurring theme here -- especially since, and I can't stress this enough, I really, really dislike these people -- but...this is good. Too good. I have only just discovered that at least three of my more bigoted cousins (one a lot older than me, two younger, if it matters) more than likely have no idea that we have a very small percentage of Jewish ancestry, and I'm...
I mean. Okay. It really is a small amount, and non-matrilineally obtained, meaning that, under Judaic law, we qualify as nothing. Some might say it's not even worth mentioning -- but, dammit, I'm gonna, 'cos I think I can use this to make them cry.
Oh, God, how I wanna see them cry.
So, question time. How do I spring it on 'em? Public or super-duper-mega public? Should there be confetti?
I wonder how much it would cost to hire a sky writer?
ETA: It looks like the mother of the younger two (my mom's youngest sister) just flat out withheld this from them. Which, yes, is shitty, but it's, like. Garden variety shitty. The mother of the older cousin (my mom's middlemost sister) on the other hand -- wow. It turns out she's in some kind of frantic hyper-denial that's so psychologically fascinating it almost ceases to be offensive. Almost.
Yikes.
