I'm in the Don't Know camp. What's the deal with the commercial?

[–] Maddie@sh.itjust.works 137 points 9 months ago (13 children)

It's about a brother and sister being happy to see each other at Christmas after he comes home from some volunteer thing overseas. For some reason, people have been shipping them as a brother/sister incest pairing. There's legit porn fan fiction about this one commercial, it's super weird

It's because the commercial looked very "more than brother and sister" during the commercial. It was pretty abnormal behavior.

I was fully prepared to think people were overreacting, but it really is bizarre. The cherry on the cake is the brother's lip bite toward the end. He must already know his sister adores him, right? So WTF is he getting all bashful when she expresses that? I can easily imagine the excitement depicted here in myself when I see my distant siblings. I can also easily imagine knocking on my sister's door, and then joking I must have the wrong house, but it didn't seem like it was a joke for him - it seemed like genuine surprise that his sister is all grown up to the point he didn't recognize her. Shit is weird. But fuck, the lip bite?! I know I'm not everybody, but I feel like a more normal response to a sibling expressing "you're my present this year", would be like, "awwwww" and a hug. It sure was fuck isn't a lip bite.

FUCKING. BIZARRE.
