10 Ways To Annoy Your Sisters

As the oldest, it seems like all fun and games, but is it really?

10 Ways To Annoy Your Sisters
Jennifer Cartwright

I am one sister out of three girls, and yes, I am the oldest. Over the years I have learned to get under the skin of my younger siblings from pranks to tricking them into doing my chores, we've done it all. Now if you implement these ideas, let the games begin.

1. Phone Contacts

One time I changed the majority of sister's contacts to superheroes and the result was everything I wished for. I even changed the contact pictures. I put in a lot of work, but it was so worth it. She had to text everyone asking their name. Of course, I changed my own name and when I got the "Who is this my sister changed all my contacts?" text I didn't let her off that easy. It was probably one of the most planned out, most intensive pranks I've done. I'm pretty proud.

2. Cold Showers

At our house, if we turn on the hot water in the kitchen or bathroom, the shower water gets super cold. We all like to purposely wash our hands or dishes with the scalding hot water while someone is in the shower. Hearing the shrieks coming from the bathroom fills me with so much glee.

3. Unexpected Pictures

From photobombing to catching them doing some real "cute" faces, pictures and videos are a must with siblings. I have countless SnapChat videos, pictures, and screenshots of my sisters dancing, singing off key, talking abut weird things, and making the ugliest faces ever. My Instagram is home to some pretty good shots. I also find delight in taking their phone or device and taking a million pictures of random objects just to take up space and to be, well, annoying.

4. Excessive Cuddling

I am a cuddly person and my sisters make themselves too available for me to tackle them or smother them with cuddles. I have gotten kicked, punched, pinched, and slapped in protest, but I just love them SO much. What can I say? I love you, sister.

5. Appearance Critique

I always get asked for outfit advice or appearance checks, and me being an older sister, I like to sarcastically critique to the point they never ask me again. My sister hates having her hair done, so I always ask her if she will let me. I even used the "But I'm going away to college again and I won't see you for awhile" card and I still got nothing. I do help them in the end, it's just fun to mess with them, obviously.

6. Dibs

This ranges from but is not limited to food, clothing, dinner chairs, car seating, couch spot, remote, bathroom, etc. This category is pretty self-explanatory.

7. Scare Tactics

I have an ongoing streak of scaring my middle sister. When she was younger, she would get so man when I scared her, she would chase after me and attack me. Now I get a satisfying video and a good laugh. Scaring my sisters is probably one of my favorite things to do. I love their raw reactions.

8. The Favorite

I like to say one or the other sister is my favorite. Most of the time I just like to instigate fights and arguments. I love them both and I don't really have a favorite. There is an ongoing joke where my youngest sister is my favorite, but it's not true (maybe).

9. Go Fetch

Asking your sisters to get you something is by far the coolest thing ever, especially as the oldest who is away at college. They typically get whatever it is I want without complaint or excuse. If only they lived with me here at CofO.

10. Selective Hearing

It can be fun to act like I don't hear them some of the time. These instances are when they want me to get them something, do something, or help them with something. I let it get to the point of my name being yelled at least 10 times, then I'll answer. I would not try this with parents.

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
