My cousin’s husband turned 60 recently, and I am really sorry I missed the party because his sister, who is blind, stood up at one point and made a “family is like a basket, tightly-interwoven” speech and all the other guests were either making faces like “barf” and “gag me” or were being totally shocked at the rudness of the former, depending on which branch of the family tree they came from. The tension was finally broken when her other brother got her in a headlock and made her sit back down.
