My uncle Omar.
He's pretty much the black sheep of the family. Despite how much our family has suffered under Chavez's regime, Omar is an officialist, whereas the rest of the Villalobos (Every single one of us) are Opposition.
That "chavist" prick supports that madman and its one of the directors of the PCV party, why? because they pay good, allow him access to dollars, to visit any country he wants without redtape, and other privileges. So what if you sell your soul to the devil? at least you get free coupons.
Good god how I hate that guy ¬_¬ I'm almost ashamed we're blood related. My grandpa has practically disowned him.

For me it's my mother's father- my grandfather, I guess. He's just a real scumbag. When my mother was like 12, her mother had a nervous breakdown and really couldn't function. Her father took half the kids, packed their bags, and moved with them to California. He left my mother, and 2 of her siblings in the house with their non-functional mother. And didn't tell anyone. They were found a couple of days later by their grandparents, having just sat in the house eating whatever was in the cupboards, and eventually ended up in foster care. I know my mother tried a number of times over the years to contact him, and he basically had no interest. I know he pretty much wanted nothing to do with the kids he took with him after they became adults too, from my aunt. In the end, it was probably better for my mother he didn't take her, because I have heard some stories about how ridiculously abusive his new wife was towards his kids (but not hers)- I think my aunt ran away at 14 or something and lived on her own from that time.
Since then, my mother and aunt tried to reconnect with him from time to time, despite everything- I guess because they wanted some kind of a relationship just based on the blood connection. Finally a couple of years ago, his wife died and her kids whose lives he had been involved with stopped having anything to do with him once their mother was gone. Then he decided he was ready to have his kids back in his life, and started to visit my aunt and call my mother.
I met him a couple of times in recent years, and I think the thing that sealed it the most for me was just how self-centered he was all the time. There was never a sense that he had anything to apologize for, or that he was at all regretful or guilty about having shut out his family or left them or anything. But beyond that, watching him interact with people was like watching a petulant toddler. If at any time he wasn't the center of attention, he's say semi-kidding passive aggressive things about "Well maybe I should just go home now." He bragged in front of his grand children how he has this whole script ready for when his fiancee had found out he lied about his age, so that he could flip the conversation around on her and make it seem like she was the one wrong if she got upset. Even when he talked about having found God, all he did was brag about how impressed with his faith the other church members were.
So, yeah. I think the man's worthless. He's terminally ill, and I imagine he won't be around too much longer. And I honestly don't care.

I really don't think there's anyone in my family I can't stand. I guess that's a good thing!

you're very lucky. 99% of families tend to have at least one who's a black sheep that makes you wonder where did the gene pool managed to produce that waste.

My mother.
Long story short: She'd rather I wasn't her kid. She tried to send me off all the time to live with other people, as I was from her dreaded first marriage. Then, as an adult, she does nothing but cause drama. I don't talk to her. Once every couple of years she contacts me with stupid stuff. As a matter of fact, she contacted me today after a few years, wanting me to help her with money. What an intolerable woman.

My aunt. She always tries to get money from my mom, complains about her problems (almost all of which are self inflicted), ignores her kids and wastes pretty much everything she has.

One of my cousins, probably. She very rarely keeps her mouth shut, and when she does it's to give everyone evil looks like we did something to her, when 99% of the time we absolutely did not. She's hard to interrupt, calls frequently to complain about her problems, is way to overprotective of her two year old kid, not letting him do anything if she isn't there to watch personally. We're not allowed to play with him, apparently, because we're all too violent. Which is, you know, bull$%^&. It's her right to decide what her kid does and doesn't do, sure, but if we as much as look at him she'll go "Don't scare him you idiot!"

He sounds really insecure.

My sister, she does this thing where she blows her nose without tissue FOR HOURS ON END.
Unfortunately, that isn't an exaggeration. I've heard her do it for 4 hours before. She's also a total immature !@#$%, so good luck trying to get her to stop, she's 'had a cold' for about the last three years.

Sounds like you've got a pretty good family, if this is the worst of it. My dad is serving in a federal prison for ripping people off... total of like, 3 million dollars, myself included. He's not even the worst of my family.

My brother.
End of story.
If you dig through/have seen some past posts, you get the idea.

My mother, constant control freak which led to the separation of her and my dad, she then tried to sue him for child support, after he paid for all my food, clothes, entertainment already, while she made for money than him.
