Oh that seems like probably the hardest job to have with that particular condition. Imagine having to explain to a new group of 10-year-olds every year why you have a conjoined twin. And I’m sure there are kids who say not nice things about them.
To their slight benefit, I doubt it’s a shock to any of the kids or parents when they show up at the start of the year. I bet they’re a well known pair in their school system and community.
Doesn’t make comments and jokes easier though, but hopefully they can turn their experience into good lessons
I've never met them but they're a couple years older than me and from broadly the same area. I know people who went to college with them. They're definitely a known entity
Even when I was growing up, talking shit about them got you pushback. And we were noxious little shits back then compared to today. It was partially cause it's disrespectful but also because Minnesotans fucking love any claim to relevancy we can get and they're celebrities. Did you get interviewed by Oprah? Yeah I don't think so buddy.
Yeah, you nailed the MN mindset. I've seen them out and about a few times. I feel terrible when I saw them once and kind of jumped. It was my first day on a job so I was pretty nervous and I turned around they were right next to me. My brain took a second to process what I was seeing and I was amped up because of my first day. They did not seem pleased.
