I heard someone say this unexpectedly today. I think it was Sarah Chaise, formally of NPR, now selling soap in a cave in Afghanistan. I think she was talking about the US support of Pakistan turning Afghani civilians against America. Something like, “If the US supports Pakistan and Pakistan does this and that to the Afghanis, then Bob’s your uncle, they don’t like us.”
Maybe it wasn’t her. I heard it somewhere though and thought, “Does everyone really have an Uncle Bob?” Because I have one alive and one deceased. Most of my friends have an Uncle Bob, too. And Bob’s your uncle, so do my cousins!
PS. So do my siblings, pictured above with--Bob's your uncle!--Uncle Bob)
I have no Uncle Bob. There are many Franks in my family, on both sides (and Frank doesn't have an Uncle Bob either).
