What Does This Mean?

[ SLANG ][ FRIENDSHIP ]

A close friend whose taste, humor, and reactions mirror your own so closely it feels like a second self rather than a separate person.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"She sent the exact meme I was about to send her. We're twins, it's not even funny anymore."

LORE & ORIGIN

Extended from 'twin' as a literal sibling term into platonic-affinity slang once shared-reaction culture made finding someone with identical taste feel notable enough to name.
