It's not my "uncle," no. But there is no doubt it is related to me. Darwin first figured it out, and then modern science, particularly DNA comparison, has verified it. Phrasing it the way you did, of course, is a caricature, and makes it sound derogatory.
The sad fact of life that we all have to get used to is that reality is what it is, whether we like it or not. You can pretend that chimpanzees aren't your closest relative next to other humans, just as you can pretend that the earth doesn't revolve around the Sun. Science has conclusively proven both, but no one can force you to accept either.
But we'd be happy if you'd join us here in reality. :)
