Brothers and sisters. Growing up with them, it's definitely a love/hate relationship. It's awesome because you basically have a friend for life and there's always someone to talk to (when you're getting along at least), but it's also a living nightmare when you don't get along. Here's a list of things you'll only understand if you grew up with siblings.

1. Having to label all of your food items so those barbarians of siblings don't eat them (even though they probably will)

If I bring home a box of leftovers, you best believe I am marking it with my name, a threatening message for if it be touched and I might even take a picture of it to make sure I know if/when someone tries to take a nibble from it. And if someone does, THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY.

2. Fighting over the shower in the mornings

It's always a race to see who is willing to get up the earliest to get to the shower first.

3. Faking sick to skip school but your siblings have to be jerks and rat you out

This was basically the same thing as declaring war.

4. The battle for the front seat

Was it a real family car ride if there wasn't a fight over the front seat?

5. Getting called every other siblings name except your own

Your parents will shout out the name of every other child in the home and maybe even the dogs name before they get yours out when they're trying to get your attention.

6. Stealing each other's clothes

And also wearing extra layers on top of them when you leave the house so they don't catch you in them.

7. "Flipping them off" with your ring finger (or even your middle toe if you're really creative) (so you don't get in trouble) because you're so slick

It's a win-win situation: you express your anger, and you don't get in trouble!

8. The never-ending fight over the tv

This includes but does not limit to: hiding the remote from each other, taking it with you everywhere you go in the house so no one takes it and covering up the sensor for the remote once your other siblings take it from you.

9. Refusing that you look alike (even though you totally do)

"Ew, no! I don't look like my weirdo sister at all, what are you talking about? Gross!!!!"

10. Sticking up for them

It's okay if you pick on your siblings, but the moment someone else does, it's World War III. Family sticks together!

11. Getting stuck babysitting the younger ones so your parents don't have to pay a sitter

And then calling mom when they're not listening to you because she put you in charge!!

12. Annoying the crap out of each other whenever possible

"I'm not touching you... I'm not touching you!"

13. Watching happily as your sibling gets roasted by your parents for something you did

Cue the evil laugh.

14. Passing on the gross chores to your other siblings

Ya know, when mom asks you to go pick up the dog poop outside, you go tell your other sibling that mom asked you to tell them to do it.

15. Standing on the sidelines while your siblings duel it out and you're just chilling

It's nice to not be in the middle of the fight for once, so you cherish this peaceful time and just enjoy yourself.
