One of the most interesting things about getting older is watching younger generations come up with new terms for stuff that’s already been around forever.

For instance, the phrase “I just have one of those faces,” is apparently being replaced by “I have cousin face.”

As laid out in this video from TikTok user @eviefsb:

“Last night I was introduced to a friend of a friend and I was like, ‘have we met before? you look familiar.’ And she goes ‘oh, that’s just because I have Cousin Face.'”

“I was like, ‘what the **** is cousin face?’ And she goes, ‘everyone’s always like you look like my cousin, you look like my cousin’s cousin, I look like everyone’s cousin.'”

“And I was like, ‘we look very similar.’ And she was like, ‘you have Cousin Face, too.’ I have cousin face.”

The comments were wild.

Straight out of central casting?

Is it spreading?

And then semantic satiation began to take over.

I guess if you go far back enough on the timeline, we’re all TECHNICALLY related.

We are all cousin face.
