its called having a healthy relationship with a member of your family. how is it weird ?
The word "sweetie" must have different implications across our cultures. Where I am (USA), it's more likely to apply to a romantic partner or a child than a sibling. At least, that's my experience. Someone else mentioned this use (sibling) wouldn't be unusual in the UK and I can accept that.
I prefer to think of the creator of the meme as an American and all the awkwardness and sexual undertones are fully intended!
well the assumption is that op is one of the dozens of people NOT from the US...
