Twins are allowed to be in public.

u/GoCardinal07 8h ago

I thought that was only true in Minneapolis and St. Paul as the Twin Cities.

u/strange_bike_guy 8h ago

Before ICE showed up, Minneapolis and Saint Paul were frenemies always talking junk at each other for who was the coolest. Then ICE happened and the lesser conflicts were forgotten in light of new priorities.

This varies from county to county. Honestly I think this country is way too lax on allowing twins to be in proximity of each other.

Things were simpler in the Parent Trap era.

u/DirectGoose 7h ago

As a twin, I have to agree. It's chaos.

2

u/HananaDragon 31m ago

Can confirm. If I'm near my twin for too long I start simmering

u/Andy_0L 8h ago

Are they though?

u/KatzMwwow ​ 7h ago

Since when?

u/LilMissADHDAF 8h ago

That’s adorable, because you know that whether they are sisters, lovers, or best friends, they definitely have each other.

28

u/big-ol-kitties 7h ago

If they ever go shopping alone, they probably grab one for themselves and one for their person 🥹

u/shnooqichoons 5m ago

Or, codependency/enmeshment.

u/AverageInfamous7050 8h ago

Respect. Probably twins taking care of each other.

12

u/ChrisRR 7h ago

Or lesbians

u/AverageInfamous7050 6h ago

That'd be awesome, too.

u/FS_Scott 8h ago

historians would say they were good friends and roomates

u/ClockwiseServant 6h ago

Siblings, even. Maybe even twins.

u/Due-Statistician-682 1h ago

My mom is a twin. At 82 her and my aunt still wear matching clothes when they get together.

3

u/banjodoctor 7h ago

They probably know each other.

u/Bempet583 7h ago

We've got two brothers about that age in my town that seemed to dress exactly the same and are always with one another.

u/SUW888 7h ago

Some twins are terrifying some are old and in sync

3

u/Exhausted-CNA 7h ago

same shoes as well!

u/RLewis8888 7h ago

One is an obvious clone.

u/Giillybean 7h ago

Aw this reminds me of the twin old ladies who lived near my parents. Same hair, same clothes, I think they lived together too

2

u/hatecriminal 8h ago

When sales are good enough for one, they're even better for two.

u/Username_5647 8h ago

It's like the repeating NPCs in GTA San Andreas

Don't humans naturally sync when walking together regardless of relation?

1

u/maddy_k_allday 6h ago

So idk, but I know beings (not just humans) positioned close together will naturally sync to breathe the opposite way, so that it’s complimentary. Like my chest goes out while yours goes in. Seems similar to this. They also appear to have same stride length, which would help

u/naakka 7h ago

Me and my husband start on a different leg approx. 97% of the time. So we walk in sync but in a way where our shoulders bonk against each others' unless one of us switches.

u/NikNakskes 55m ago

Ah. So one is left footed and the other right.

u/ODST_Viking 8h ago
