Out of my sister and my two closest cousins, I'm the one with the German accent. The rest probably all sound somewhat British.

I also have a weird cousin. My family hasn't seen him for years and he always asked my mum for a glass of hot tap water. The youngest kid that my mum babysat even told me that my older cousin is weird.

My sister gets asked if she's French Canadian. I get asked if I'm German, Austrian or Polish.

I am sad to see so many Youtube videos about how to socialize and become friendly with your cat. Our family had a cat from about 1977 to 1990 I think (pre-internet). We were VERY LOUD when we scolded the cat when it went into a room we did not want it to enter. When I see today's videos, I can CLEARLY see that we could have been MUCH nicer, and the cat would have had a more enjoyable life.

EDIT: Nowadays, I would not own a cat. When it gets old, has difficulty moving around, and it is close to death, I don't think I could deal with the sadness this would cause me.

I guess so. I am - I'm fully aware of it - seen as a weirdo by others.
