Reblogged from gyarados
You’re welcome
This is the most useful thing I’ve ever reblogged.
liatai was kind enough to direct me to this post. Sure does clear up the matter that has bugged me forever! But now: if my first cousin’s child is my first cousin once removed, how is my grand uncle/aunt’s kid also my first cousin once removed? Am I thinking too much? I think it has to do with the lines, and how far you are (first degree, second degree etc.)
Anywho: in South Asian culture cousins are like brothers and sisters, so their kids are basically your nieces and nephews. And a great uncle/aunt is basically another grandparent, and their children are your uncle/aunt too.

You’d be surprised how much fat even an average-sized human has packed around their organs. I had a cadaver whose heart had so much fat on it we had to melt it off by putting it in a bucket of hot water just to be able to identify exterior structures.
