Fame ...

Imagine you've received this photo on your phone from your sister, with the message 'R & L's latest venture' (where R and L are two of her offspring).
Do you:
- assume she's joking
- assume she's joking but check anyway
- disown your entire family
...?

Possibly disown them... but not without further investigation.

I would assume it was a joke... but then, thinking of my sister, and having met yours....

the comments are quite entertaining (http://www.thisisplymouth.co.uk/news/FURY-NEW-UNION-STREET/article-290283-detail/article.html)
(I think you met Rich too.)

I think I would deduce that the ev0l gene can be expressed in a wide variety of traits.

Well, my family have got up to worse. We just smile and ignore them, these days. But you are right about the comments. Particularly the one about raffle prizes.

Oh my god

I'd run screaming. But you probably did that.

that's a vote for 'disown the lot of 'em', then?

OMG I CANNOT POSSIBLY BE GENETICALLY LINKED TO THESE PEOPLE PLS

Well you were thinking about going back to work, so why not join the family business?
