Top 10 ways to drive your brother or sister crazy

Sometime you just want to strangle your sibling or drive them crazy for all the things they have done to you. It finally gets to a point where it is payback time. It doesn't matter if they are older or younger than you, a brother or a sister they all get on your nerves. Getting back at a sibling is a process you have to think and plan carefully. Keep your eyes open looking for the moment they least expecting it, this is your opportunity to strike back. Make sure your parents aren't around to catch you unless you are uncatchable. Every one wants to give paybacks or get even, but it doesn't have to be mean. In fact the most fun paybacks are not mean at all. The following are some ways to drive your brothers and/or sisters crazy without getting into trouble that for you watching may become very funny. Sit back and enjoy your payback.

When they are mean or laugh at you, laugh back hysterically like they are the joke. It will frustrate them and you had the last laugh.
When your sibling is attacking you, you can scream really loud and start to cry. This will get you're your parent's attention and make them come running. Hopefully, they will see that your brother or sister is hurting you, causing them to get into trouble not you. Don't do this if your sibling is younger than you, it will make a fool of you and you will probably get into trouble.
Stick a life saver in your siblings shower, providing you don't have to use the shower next.
When they sit on you find a non-visible spot t pinch them.
Bribe your sibling by telling them you are going to tell your parents one of their secrets. If that isn't affective enough then quietly go up to one of your parents and whisper something in their ear to act like you are telling them a secret.
You can always try ignoring your siblings; however, this will take a large amount of will power on your part until they finally go away.
One way to ignore your siblings is to go to your room and listen to music to relax. If you share a room ask one of your parents to go outside or a basement. It helps if you listen to music they don't like.
You can embarrass them in front of their friends by randomly running up to them at school, give them a hug and or a kiss and say I love you so much, and then run off.
Hang out with some of you brother and/or sister friends; it will make them so mad.
Sing a crazy song or at silly in a manner that drives them crazy so they don't want to be around you. Make sure it is not something you will not get into trouble for doing.

Everyone who has experienced annoying siblings knows that when you are the youngest everyone picks on you or bosses you around. They all think they can be in your business and control what you do. The nice thing about being the youngest is that you can watch your siblings being annoying to each other and learn ways to give paybacks and how to ignore them. The youngest also get the advantage of having the house to themselves one day and not worrying about being bossed around. The teen years are of course the worse of the years for rivalry between siblings. As you get older paybacks don't seem to be as necessary as they once were, but they are still handy to have a few up the sleeve, just in case one of your siblings decide to annoy you.
