Things your siblings do to annoy you

Dr. Zaius Dr. Zaius!

One of my sisters borrows some of my clothes. Thing is, she then wears them to death, so if I do eventually get them back, I cant wear them because she has wron them so much, theyve lost their appeal, they feel like 'hers' and not mine anymore!
Sometimes if I let her borrow something I know I wont see it again, so I just accept it.
(Shes a member of Boards, so probably reading this!.....I want my wine jeans back!!)
Im not suggesting im the perfect sister either. I do silly things all the time!

Anyone else with sibling stories?

The more you keep giving them to her the more she'll keep taking them Tell her to buy her own clothes and stop being such a cheapskate.

Shes not a cheapskate atall, just wouldnt be confident enough in putting a 'stylish' outfit together so borrows mine because its easier. Not that im exactly Kim Kardashian or anything.

Summer wind

Turning off the bathroom light and leaving me in the dark. Sooooo much fun when I'm in the shower.

My older brother sends me messages with photos of things like potholes, gaps in fences, dug pits, empty foundations, or just holes a dog dug up or a pair of jeans with a hole in the knee. The text is always, always, the same.

"Look at the size of MY HOLE!!!!! Lol"

One week he spammed me with this about 20 times.

My brother makes noises when he eats. It infuriates me.

Dr. Zaius Dr. Zaius!

My brother leaves leaves glasses, cups,bowls, general rubbish all over the house.
Fair enough if your room is messy and smelly, nobody has to go in there, but the rest of us dont want to live in YOUR filth!
And everytime I ask him to clean up after himself he hits the roof. So annoying

I have no rational explanation for it, but that word, "siblings"... nails on a chalkboard

Anyway, we're all adults now and we rarely ever have to share the same breathing space, but any time we do, we always end up arguing, the very same as when we were children, except the only difference nowadays is it doesn't nearly come to blows quite as often!

My little brother used to come into a room, hit himself, fall to the floor crying and screaming that I had hit him and my mam and dad always believed him until one day they caught him in the act.

My brother was obsessed with ghosts and would insist on leaving the light on when we shared a room, this went on till he was about 12,13. When we would go away on holidays he'd be terrified that the hotel or whatever would be haunted and he'd keep me up all night.

When my brother was a teenager he used to spray Lynx Africa all over my room if we ever had an argument. Thankfully those days are over!

Mine does the same. But not when he eats. I can't hear if he eats. But bangs the spoon of the bowl with every mouthful at breakfast time. He doesn't notice because its been said to him before.

Like, bangs the spoon of the bowl. The same with dinner and forks and plates.

I don't go home much.

And what did you do when the inevitable stampede of beautiful bikini-clad women came stampeding into your room?

How petty is that, come on.

My brother used to read my diary and threaten to tell our mutual friends, teachers etc that I either hated them and wished they were dead or that I was in love with them and wanted to take them to bed. It was mortifying. I had written poems and stories etc he said he had photocopied them and was going to stick them up around the school.

Son Of A Vidic

One of my brothers is totally minted, he pretty much retired in his Thirties and he never stops crying the poor mouth.

HalloweenJack

My older brother insists on having a fight anytime we meet to reenforce the fact that he's the oldest and therefore the strongest. He says he needs to do it so that I'll never forget that I'm the youngest. He also insists on calling me nicknames from my childhood to wind me up.

Every time, I beat him into submission and he admits defeat til the next time. He's been doing this since I first beat him up when I was 15 and over a decade later he still can't accept it.

Btw, when I say fight, we don't knock each other senseless, we just tussle until I pin him and twist his arm til he gives up.

They're constantly banging on the bars of their cage, shouting for help, trying to escape.
A real pain in the arse.

I was a very irritating teenager (it's hard to believe, right?), and although I get on with my siblings, one sister just doesn't let it go.

In her head, I am still 12, and she carries on like we haven't grown up.

I'll go home for a weekend, and be perfectly civil, but if I play my music too loud or forget to wash a plate, the knives are out. If I speak too loudly on the phone, there will be loud complaints that "Conor always does that".

For me the annoying bit is that I recognize that I was an annoying teenager, but now I'm an adult with adult friends and a responsible way of living. I have a girlfriend, a grocery list, a dog, a job, and bills to pay, but in her eyes, I'll always be the annoying, 12-year-old brother.

I hear ya! I get that a bit too.

My brother is a maniac with cutlery. He holds them like daggers and when he's cutting food, he does it so aggressively it's like he's trying to saw the plate in half.
It infuriates me. He's nearly 40, how can he not use cutlery by now??

He's also a really horrible person, otherwise I could let the plate sawing slide.

I love all my siblings equally, but the girls have serious problems !

My brothers and I haven't had a cross word in years.

But only this week, there have been two feuds opened on our WhatsApp group, among sisters.

Granted, this was a bad week, but rarely a week goes by without the girls attacking one another.

To answer the question, my siblings don't annoy me, but I am annoyed by my sisters annoying one another !

As far as I can see, this is a common problem with sisters.

Dr. Zaius Dr. Zaius!

If myself and my sister fight, its rare but it never lasts long. We'll both have a roar or a shout, stay silent for a few minutes, and then, as if nothing ever happened.....'you having tea'? :P

I could write a novel. With my brother, our entire life, it's been a constant game of oneupmanship. When we were kids, we would hang over the bannister of the stairs, dropping toys down on each other on the stairs, full on trying to pelt each other with toy cars/Barbie dolls.

Now we're adults, and it's still the same. When I lived at home, he'd complain I used to tumble dryer too much, so he would take the plug out of it so it wouldn't work for me but he could use it when he needed to, so he had the fuse and I cut the plug off.

He would park his car in such a way that I could never get out in the mornings while his dumb ass would still be in bed and he wouldn't get up to move it. After weeks of telling him not to block me in, I took his car one morning, drove it to a really remote spot in the neighbourhood. Locked it. Walked home, and headed on to work. He spent a good portion of the day looking for his car, that finished him parking behind me but he did the exact same to me weeks later, even though my car wasn't in his way.

He would never buy any shopping for himself. Used everything belonging to me, toiletries, food etc. Went to the fridge and took out the eggs. Hungry jaws had mowed into 10 eggs and left 2. I was livid, pelted the eggs at him and he pulled the cable thing off the car engine so it wouldn't start.

He can't walk past me without nudging into me, he pretends he can't see me when we fight, "who's there? Who Said that? Hello???" He has me named shrek in his phone book. He helps himself to anything he wants that I have, he eats really loud on purpose, he stands behind me and burps in my ear, he deliberately slurps his drinks when he remembers how mad it makes me.

He's an absolute horror but I give as good as I get

Badly Drunk Boy

Earlier my brother asked (by text) if I wanted to go for a drive (to Kildare town).

I said "What? Why?"
He said "I'll collect you in 3 minutes. See you then..."

I was only catching up on stuff I'd recorded over the week, so I said "Give me 10 minutes.".

THIS IS MY WEEKEND! YOU'RE A DOLE-HEAD. LEAVE ME ALONE.

(He's not quite a dole-head and it isn't quite like that but it is very similar.)

That made me laugh!

Wow though, my brother doesnt seem so bad now!!

monkeysnapper

My sister lives in Florida in a huge house with pool and makes loads of money but every time she comes to visit never has any money and constantly keeps borrowing money then goes home after more or less a free holiday .

I wouldn't mind buy she's single and I have 3 kids .

Suppose I'm a sucker but we love to see her none the less

Did you take up hitting him after that?:pac:

Using the sugar spoon to stir their tea, then plonking the wet spoon back into the sugar bowl afterwards. I mentally flick the safety catch of my imaginary pistol when I see it.

FelineOverLord

My brother has a habit of texting to ask if he can call around to us, then he doesn't turn up and doesn't bother to let us know that he's changed his mind. It bugs the sh(t out of me. The chap is 40 years old, he knows better.

When I was 18 months old, almost 50 years ago, my baby sister was being christened. I was so excited that we were having sausages for tea, I decided she'd love one. That led to the first of many slaps I got for being nasty to my little sister! How was I to know a 2 week old baby couldn't eat sausages? My mother shouldn't have left the moses basket within my reach!

There is an evil streak in him. I have a sister similar. If she knew what I was at all, she would get to me in some way. For example, your brother would park his car in front of yours and block you in... When we shared a room at home, she would be up in mornings before me. I would be working in the afternoons. But she would get up and leave her alarm on snooze, knowing I was still in bed.

Got up one morning and threw it on the kitchen table. I was too kind. She roared at me, where's my phone... I threw it out the window. It was funny seeing her search for it. This was years ago.

Went home a year or two ago for Christmas and she was still at it. But only she had the Christmas off. Her alarm was off all Christmas. Family rang on Christmas morning. Her phone was on to receive a call. But her alarm didn't go off. One week later she was still off from work. But her alarm went off. She claimed it was on all over Christmas. But it wasn't on when her phone was switched on to receive a call the week before.

She just had to cause trouble.

Their general lack of existence is pretty feckin' irritating. Being an only child sucks - my siblings, if they existed, would have some serious explaining to do.
