Dysfunction and Aunts and Long Weekends and Three Year Olds

After a sumptuous meal of turkey and trimmings and shami kababs with biryani the witch said to a female relative (30 something),"You are a bloody flirt. You were one at three years old. You are still a bloody flirt. You were flirting with my son (high school student)."
Then the witch popped some pills, a little white one and a little blue one, and ranted some more, meaninglessly.
The female relative, the initial shock now worn off, asked the witch,"What makes you say these things?"
Witch, pointing to her older sister, said,"She said that to me. Why can't I say that to you????"
That was cause for confusion as the older sister has no sons.
It turns out at some point in her life her sister accused her(witch) of flirting with her(sister's) father-in-law and so now the witch wants to accuse others too of inappropriate flirting. Don't ask how this makes sense. I'm only reporting the dysfunction, not trying to make sense of it.
