> [@msmith537](#): > > My cousin…nephew…(what’s my first cousin’s kid called?) The child of your first cousin (or the first cousin of your parent) is your first cousin once removed, though it is common for the younger person in such a relationship to address the elder as “Aunt” or “Uncle,” which communicates the difference in generations better than the more accurate term. That’ll be a dollar. ---

**Alright, I’m going with mega troll or the most clueless human being ever.** This thread is about grammar not your mom. Stay on topic. **I don’t think I’ve ever encountered not realizing women are individual people before.** Theres a first time for everything **No, it’s over your insufferable “you guys are WHINERS. I’m a PERSON who is FREE and thus you can’t CRITICIZE me or you’re all NARROW MINDED MEANIES” attitude.** u CAN criticise, but its BS over the way a person prefers to type. way to not be petty and harping over something that doesnt REALLY matter. narrow minded meanies? more like a bunch of antisocial nerds who give way too much of a shit over how people choose to write, and instantly judge people as less then if they dont write like you do. thats where my attitude has been commin from. And if u dont like my posts, do me a favor and get the fuck out. ---
