Top 10 ways to drive your brother or sister crazy

Being a kind, caring, devoted 19 year old brother that I am, nothing satisfies me more than tormenting my older sister. I guess that goes for anyone who is a younger brother or sister. Considering that there is a 4 year gap between us, makes it even better!

I'll lay these prime points out in ten unique steps.

Step 1: Always make sure, that when your sister brings home a boyfriend for the first time, that you have to embarrass her!  Embarrassment is essential to making the boring night in to a fun night. You see them sitting there, your sister and her first boyfriend, and decide to intervene. You sister glares at, trying to keep her temper subtle. ALWAYS, ALWAYS comment on how wonderful they look together. Every so often, make "Awwing" sounds. Occasionally add in things like, "Don't you just look cute together?" Your sister always flushes, showing embarrassment and discomfort, which completes stage one.

Step 2: When your sister or brother goes out for the day, then it is time for immobilization. Girls and guys HATE having their stuff moved from their bedroom. If they have left a certain item, like, a set of CDs on her bedside cabinet, then what you do is, you simply move them. First, see if there are any CDs you like the look of, and sneakily hide them in a place they wouldn't even consider looking in. If they have, like, a special token, a blanket since birth, or just anything highly valuable, make sure you let them SEE you cuddling up to it. This makes you feel good about yourself, and irritates your sister to RED-Alert.

Step 3: When sitting down at the family table for dinner, this is a great opportunity to just be yourself and to be irritable. Staring has the desire to make them feel uncomfortable. It won't be long until they are complaining to Mum and Dad that you are intentionally wanting to annoy them, and technically, you aren't. Staring can be very useful: one of my favorites with my sister.

Step 4: One of my absolute favorite ways to drive my sister up the wall, is my bad habit of snorting. I have this grogging problem, which comes in handy if you want your sister to shut up. Grogging is useful in the way that it gets your sister to the point of exploding with rage and irritation. Any bad habit which frustrates your sister or brother, use it!

Step 5: Being dumb is really, really good fun. If your sister asks you to make her a cup of tea, just say that you don't know how. She'll turn on you, and ask if you thick. And your reply, "Yes." Or, you
