...to ask what cheeky things your sisters did to you (light-hearted)

Okay so I just messaged my sister on WhatsApp and something catches my eye. Is that... could that be...? Yep, my darling sister is wearing one of my beloved skirts on her profile picture. Since I left home to work in the UK for a year she's apparently treating my closet as an extension to hers without asking. I texted her "That's a lovely skirt you are wearing there. It just awfully looks like one from my closet :*"

What cheeky things have your sisters done to you? Or what have you done to your sisters?

Full disclaimer, I love my sister to bits so this is all light-hearted (even though I am slightly annoyed at her too)

My sister tells me that every time she sees a picture of me she thinks "Oh, that's me. Oh no it's not - it's Smiths wearing my clothes." (Currently, I'm wearing the same three inherited nursing tops on rotation.)

CatherineTheTiny · 13/04/2018 18:36

Wow, I am the older sister and everyone always said "be polite, make a good impression, be a good role model for your sister blah blah" while the precious little sister herself went to embarrass us and everyone around us ("Oh look that man over there has a HUGE thing on his nose and also he is old" etc)😂

When we were 9/12ish my older DSis spent hours drawing a pencil portrait of Joe McIntyre from NKOTB's face. Then she popped my Lolo ball. So I found her sketch book and drew a big red X in felt pen over Joe McIntyre's face. We found the sketch book a few years ago and pissed ourselves laughing for days.

I have 3 younger siblings
Brother 8 years younger
SisterA 10 years younger
SisterB 12 years younger
Last year, after watching Friday Night Dinner, SisterA hid in a bin bag and jumped out at me when I came into the kitchen. I nearly died! I was also a few weeks pregnant but hadn’t told anyone yet 😂
As the oldest, I learnt when my brother was a baby that if I leaned on his pram at a certain angle I could tip him out face first, so I did this with all 3 of them, always on the beach though so they had a soft landing 😂

CatLadyToddlerMother · 13/04/2018 18:56

Don't have a sister, but am one myself.

When my brother was about 3 or 4 and I was maybe 4 or 5, he hated a particular episode of Tots TV. So I used to ask my mum to put that episode on everytime it was my turn to choose Grin

Whenever I was home from University and he was out I'd raid his "sweet tin" and eat them all.

I used to message all his girlfriends and warn them off him by sending them photos of him with his favourite cuddly toy Grin

We're best friends honest Grin

Told me that a parsnip was a roast potato. Hopefully I'm not the first or last to fall for that one.

CatherineTheTiny · 13/04/2018 19:23

@Millie
She hid in a binbag? I'd love to know the logistics of that trick for next Christmas dinner but I am afraid I'm to tall😂

@CatLady You're just doing him a favour, sifting out everyone who doesn't love DB with all his habits (and cuddly toys)😇

I’m the rotten bitch sister because I made my brother eat a wasp. I told him it was a liquorice sweetie. His mouth swell and ended up hospitalised. I was 5 and he was about to turn 2. My mum had her back to us while we were playing in the garden and the wasp landed on his toy. It all happen so fast.
I improved significantly after that but I’ll never forget it.

JadeT2 · 13/04/2018 19:31

I like this thread, I'm about to give birth to DD2 and there will be a 17 month age gap. I grew up with only brothers so have no idea what to expect!

MillieMoon94 · 13/04/2018 19:58

@Catherine yes she hid in a bin bag! 😂 One brother did it to another in an episode of Friday Night Dinner, I think it involves standing in one and putting another over your head when you hear the other person coming, then crouching so you look like the rubbish that’s waiting to go out to the bins. Using this logic I think it’s doable for all heights 😂

LookBackInIngres · 13/04/2018 20:12

When I was about 6 in the late 50s in the bath with my sister (9) she squirted some deodorant from a squeegee bottle up my bum. God knows what we were playing at but it hurt like hell and I screamed blue murder. Not long later we were playing “Egyptian Slaves”. Guess who was the Slave. I stood on the arm of the sofa while she tied my feet together and pushed me off into the fireplace. Green stick fracture of the right elbow. We're not close Grin

DangerEgg · 13/04/2018 21:18

If my sister stayed with me, she was always nicking my clothes and they would end up with stains, rips or worse, never even come back to me. I'd say 'where is that red blouse' (a favourite she begged to borrow)
"oh that old thing, I had it so long, assumed you'd not want it back so I threw it out / gave it to Friend / It went in a charity bag'.

Even if I forbade her from taking my stuff, she still did!

ferretygubbins · 13/04/2018 21:34

My elder sister was most unreasonable - for example she would get all shouty just because I had hanged all of her soft toys (why do teenage girls want cuddly toys anyway?) from an array of nooses all over her bedroom?

She also got upset just because my pet was playing with hers and she didn't think this was fair. Admittedly she may have had a point on that one as I had ferrets and she had a guinea pig but it way only half of his face that was eaten so I'm really not sure what the problem was.

CollyWombles · 13/04/2018 21:35

My stepsister was a lot older than me, we shared a room. At night when I was sleeping, she would move the bedroom furniture around knowing I would wake needing the loo. Being in the country side it was always pitch black, so I used to feel my way to the door. I would end up walking into wardrobe doors, desks and chest of drawers.

BringMeCoffeePlease · 13/04/2018 21:39

When we were children, we were holidaying at a caravan park. We went to the entertainment club one evening with an onstage children’s entertainer. The entertainer organised a game for the children where you had to dance and when the music stopped, you had to be stood in a hula hoop but only three people could be in the hoop. The music stopped, I got into a hoop with three other people including my sister...and I pushed her out...and I ended up winning the game and winning the prize. I’d never won one of these competitions beforeGrin

Cerseilannisterinthesnow · 13/04/2018 22:02

Not what my sister did to me (apart from stealing my clothes then denying any knowledge even thought she’d have photos on bebo! Of her wearing them). When we were a lot younger I used to hide cat biscuits in her mash if she went to the toilet and see if she’d eat them before she noticed 😁

ibetyoulookgoodonthedancefloor · 13/04/2018 22:06

My sister told me to touch a lamp bulb to see if it was warm, I refused and she stuck it to my face!!

She would randomly shout my name to give me a fright, still does it to this day.

Witch!

sockunicorn · 13/04/2018 22:16

Not my sister but my DDs.....

DD1 convinced her younger sister that when they were older DD1 would own a company (doing a specific job DD2 is desperate to do) and she would hire DD2. She would pay her £1000 a month for doing this job. However in order to fund the company, DD2 would have to pay £2 of her pocket money each week into a pension scheme type effort. To cover startup costs and uniforms and tools. DD2 was so enamoured at the thought of doing her dream job and earning £1000 a month that she paid it. DD1 had been pocketing over 50% of her sisters pocket money for over a month before DD2 casually told me their "amazing" life plan. Hmm

(to be fair DD1 had it all in a jar. She was saving for a big smiggle blowout apparently!!)

ilovepixie · 13/04/2018 22:22

They sent me into my parents room when they were shagging to shout make it a boy this time.

Greystar · 13/04/2018 22:42

My older Sisters convinced meet touch electric fencing / put my tongue on a battery / general blame me for things which i'd get told off for..
I got them back by stealing their clothes when I was older! Grin

CatherineTheTiny · 14/04/2018 01:41

Okay this is hilarious, keep the sister stories coming (Mostly for me feeling that I am not the worst sister there is 😇)

I have another story about food:
You know this thick balsamic vinegar stuff they use in Restaurants to make their average Tomato-Mozzarella Display look like a million quid. Looks like chocolate sauce, doesn't it? I filled a teaspoon with that sauce and asked my sister if she wanted some chocolate sauce as well. Greedy little buggers shoved the spoon into her mouth without trying a bit first. Her face was priceless

not about a sister, but my younger brother.

He fell off a wall while we were playing a game outside and cut his chin open. I heard him fall and ran up to the house, only to be screamed at by my parents for pushing him off. Apparently he'd seen an opportunity to get me into trouble! Grin

CuriosityDoor · 14/04/2018 07:40

My older sister and I used to have "shops" in our bedroom doorways where we'd sell each other stuff from our rooms that we didn't want. I'd end up spending all my pocket money buying her crap and she's by nothing from my shop!

She'd also make me pretend to be her doll and would drag me around and I wasn't allowed to complain as I was a doll!

CatherineTheTiny · 14/04/2018 07:41

@pond
Wow that's mean😂 but seems to be common with younger siblings 🤔
