My mom has longer second toes, and she always said “It’s a sign you’re descended from royalty.” She also said stuff like “An ancestor ran away with an Indian princess” and “We’re descended from Sir Francis Drake” so my mom, though I love her, does not have a fully-functioning bullshit sensor.
Dunno, kinda sounds like shes bullshitting you
The toe thing was definitely a little tongue-in-cheek, but the other two she seemed to fully believe. When I pointed out that Drake didn’t have any children, or at least not legitimized, she acted confused and said it was something that the family had always said. Well… someone was bullshitting someone!
