The word “sweetie” must have different implications across our cultures. Where I am (USA), it’s more likely to apply to a romantic partner or a child than a sibling. At least, that’s my experience. Someone else mentioned this use (sibling) wouldn’t be unusual in the UK and I can accept that.
its called having a healthy relationship with a member of your family. how is it weird ?

I prefer to think of the creator of the meme as an American and all the awkwardness and sexual undertones are fully intended!
