Siblings.

Auntie Shibby

Most of us have siblings, brother(s) and/or sister(s). You come from the same genes and yet could either like the same things, or hate what they love. What do you hate/love that your sibling hates?

I love Hedwig and The Angry Inch, while my brother enjoys Rocky Horror. We dislike eachothers choices in this respect.

He is a fan of the 80's hair metal and dislikes most things before then, while I can't stand hair metal and I enjoy Bowie/Roxy Music/ Velvet Underground and the like.

He has a wife and soon a child, I will never be married and hopefully will never have children.


How do you and your sibling(s) differ from one another?

Skull Man

I have a little sister who is 10.5 years younger than me

she's a delight

but she's not as smart as I was at her age, according to my parents

however she is much more adept socially

Homeless

my brother sometimes watches anime

Dublo7

I'm definitely better than my two younger brothers.

Weaver

My sisters boyfriend got in a motorcycle wreck today.

iplaybass

I have a brother and two sisters. They're all pretty awesome in their own way.

Jigrah

My brother likes to moon people and generally be naked.

He also likes to shoot me with airsoft guns while in the shower on or the pooper.

This one time I was on my computer and he was like "Hey man, check out my new pants" but he wasn't wearing any pants.

Hes annoying but a good fuckin dude.

Dichotomy

I don't like anything my sister likes, I like about three things that my brother likes, and I'm pretty sure the same thing can be said for the opposite perspective.

far as familial similarities go, I'm way more like my father than any sibling

Jordyn

my little brother just turned 13, and is still totally awesome. He's coming to visit in 15 days.

15 days!

Some road rash or is he in the hospitable?

Houk the Namebringer

Umm.

I enjoy having freedom while my brother apparently enjoys being in and out of incarceration for his entire adult life.

Skull Man

my sister does like things that are good, which is good

however some of the things she likes are terrible

but then I liked terrible things when I was nine

so it's all good

DrIanMalcolm

My brother likes and dislikes the same things I do

Auntie Shibby

My older brother I feel is retarded. He brags to me about buying expensive things on his wifes money. I'm poor as shit and wonder how he can get away with spending so much money on something. Credit Cards is always his answer, or using the money from his wifes check.

It's sad that an older brother looks to his younger and asks advice on things that are simple. As he does. He bought himself a PS3, he has an HDTV and was saying it looks amazing. He was using composite I finally talked him into buying an eight dollar HDMI cable. He cried and hugged me after I hooked it up

In the hospital with lots & lots of road rash and maybe a couple broken thingies.

GoldenSeducer

I have two brothers and three sisters. It was crowded growing up.

Shit, either fast wreck or he wasn't wearing armor, still sucks either way.

Dublo7

My brother has the most awful taste in movies.

This is true of everyone on this forums siblings.

TheySlashThem

I'm the oldest of seven kids, each of us almost exactly one year apart in age, with the exception of the last two, which have a two year gap

I didn't find out about that gap being because of a miscarriage until I was somewhere around twenty years old

Framling

My sister is pretty great.

We get along pretty well.

We're like a team. A pretty good team.

Flyingman

My sister is poor, doesn't work, doesn't drink, doesn't date, still lives at home and doesn't do anything outside of her limited comfort zone.

I work two jobs so I can drink, smoke, date, have a place of my own and party.

We are polar opposites. I'm 20 and she's 18, at her age I was having a great time already, shit even my parents are trying to get her to be a little more outgoing.

seizureorbs

my sisters are pretty rad, but I do not get to see them very often nowadays because they are in college

they are twins

they are pretty damn knowledgable about the films

movies are kind of their thing

they are 5 years older than me

I strongly approve of your sig. Good show, chap.

Dichotomy

my brother is 25 and is only just moving out of the parent's house this fall

meanwhile I am 19 and I am already considering my welcome overstayed (which it is most certainly not)

similar we ain't

Framling

Here's a neat story, my parents didn't have kids until their mid-30s. My sister was born when my mom was (I think) 35. Then they had me almost 2 years later.

My sister apparently always assumed she was an accident, and one day a few years back, she asked my mom about it. My mom assured her that we were both planned, and by way of explanation, told my sister 'one day we looked around and realized all the assholes were having kids.'

So they decided to have two kids, so they could act as a team and back each other up in the fight against the assholes of the world. I like to think it worked out pretty well.

I felt really good when my sister told me about that. I was actually born with a purpose beyond just genetic propagation.

As7

My little brother is 21 and a neat guy but he is very socially shy.

Which is odd because he is kind of a jock and really into working out and is dating an Olympic level gymnast.

He is a very good looking person and was once offered a job at A&F almost as soon as he walked in because they are lame like that.

But he also has a hint of nerd in him and reads a lot of fantasy novels and books in general.

We are fairly different but similar in odd ways.

Oh, blast. Imperial Library. I was quite into TES for a while back.

Cosmic Sombrero

I kind of unconsciously molded my younger step-brother in to me, I feel kind of bad about that. I'm pretty close with my half-sister, but I don't talk to my step-sisters on other side of family at all.

Veegeezee

I used to have great fun demonstrating my superior strength by wrestling my kid brother.

Now he's Marine Force Recon and he could kill me with any single item off the desk my lazy butt sits at all day long.

laughingfuzzball

I was a single child until I was nine.

Now I have two little brothers and three little sisters.

I can't stand my dad's kids. They're poorly behaved and just generally not pleasant.

I enjoy my mom's kids. They're smart and polite and all that, but they're still brats.

Take solace in the fact that while he could kill you with your pen, you could potentially kill him with your keyboard.

Like that awful scene in Wanted.

'fuck you'

Campion

My brother (2 years older than myself) is a jackass leach that feeds of my mother's kindness because he's too much of a goddamn asshole to get medical and psychiatric help. Instead of doing the right thing he blames everybody else for his problems with drug addiction, suicide, and general asshattery.
All that said he's probably one of the more talented artists I know, even though devotes more of his time to his awful "music".

I also have a half-brother who's a few years older, he's okay, we don't talk.

What the hell does that have to do with anything, Scarab? It doesn't even make sense.

I was born because my parents were stupid horny teenagers with poor judgment.

My mom denied it until recently and my dad still does. Between the timing and all the condom lectures, I figured it out a while ago.

Dichotomy

my father was 40 years old when I was born!

Dee Kae

My sister is your typical hot chick.

I'm not.

TheySlashThem

my parents got married and started pumping out kids pretty much right out of high school, with my mother forgoing further education to be a housewife and let my dad bring home the bacon

which came back to bite us all in the ass, several years and seven kids later, when my father revealed himself to be the Biggest Dickweed Since Time Began(tm)

who else's dad has put them on the witness stand to try and screw their mother over, show of hands

I'm just saying, if wanted is to be believed even some office nerd can kick ass and murder people

I really hated that movie
