I always heard it as:

“Incest! A game the whole family can play!”

“The family that lays together stays together.”

[sub]I am NOT for a second implying an incestuous/hillbilly reference wrt to Mylie & Co. It’s just an expression I heard that fits the trend in this thread. Personally, I don’t have any problem with the Cyrus paradigm, whatever it is.

As long as they don’t.[/sub]

Is it wrong to want to punch a 16-year-old female in the face very, very hard?

Well, it sounds like she may be used to having _something_ “very hard” in her face.😉

If you can’t keep it in your pants, at least keep it in your family?

Of COURSE it is, sometimes…

Did you have a _specific_ question here, or were you just looking for the masses to be ignorant enough to generalise sufficiently?

I can only quote from The Gentleman’s Alphabet Book by Harvey Kornberg and Donald Hall:

> [@](#):
>
> When our mother is safely asleep.  
> My sister insists that I creep  
> Into bed where we screw  
> From eleven to two.  
> It’s domestic, familiar, and cheap.

Not really applicable to this situation, but still a limerick about incest…so, there’s that, anyway…
