Ralph: Norm, it's perfectly OK for you to date Echo! So what if she's Poopsie's second cousin's half-sister's step-niece's brother-in-law's aunt's third husband's son-in-law's nephew's cousin twice removed? Norman: She's once removed. Ralph: Oh, then forget it!

I see at least 5 separations by marriage in there…however, if they’re from the South, that means nothing :)
JoeStoppinghem Premium Member over 11 years ago
Yes, bring in the Mom.

No, don’t bring in Honeybunch. Her and Ralph look so similar I believe they are 1st cousins.

Yeah it’s getting rather old. I notice comics doing that a lot. But that’s how they end up lasting for so many years, they drag out storylines.

Yeah, Ralph, ya gotta draw the line somewhere . . June does look a lot like him though . . . ☻

Like the strip, but where is wally? Think I`m not alone when saying he is the star! Kinda like Mayberry RFD without the little guy.

Step-niece requires a second marriage. I always called my wife’s cousins my cousins-in-law and their spouses my cousins-in-law-in-law.

Hey, a stranger off the street is closer related to Norm than that, but he is Norm and that would be meaningless to him.

Eh! I’d be in. But I’m not a Drabble.

Has no one EVER studied genetics?There are no genetic issues even with first cousins having children.Even brothers and sisters are only about 1% at risk for ANY genetic problems.The MYTH about cousins having babies with flippers is purely propagated by TV as a joke, but people take it seriously.Idiots.
