Quote #10

Brother and sister are the terms used in Iran by the representatives of the law to give orders to people without offending them. (29.3)

It's a little strange that Iranians call each other brother and sister given how they seem to hate each other so much. You'd think this would remind them that they should all be working together, not against each other, but it doesn't. If everyone in Iran is family, this is the most dysfunctional family ever.
