yeah, one of the thing in my family is that I'm the only one who usually understands technology on a regualr basis. My mom kinda knows some stuff but not much. So when my parents have technology problems, or if my sisters have trouble when they actually play video games, I'm the one they go to.

That happens in just about every family. It's become so common that it's almost cliche when the teenager is the only one to understand the computer crap.

All right, guys, we're getting off topic here. ???

Aah, but as were you, in that post.

I always go to my brother with computer stuff, or my dad my mother doesn't even know what "That red X in the corner" does.
But my dad annoyed me today because I left the computer on overnight to do a 10 hour download, there was only an hour left and he turned the computer off. --_--
But he has gone away in his caravan to roam the countryside so now I can download whatever I want, cha.

Hmm... As soon as I'm old enough, I'm moving out. I've done things that I'm not proud of, and when my mom is like "You're such a good kid", in my mind I'm like aww shut up! :-*

Because then I'm stewing in my own guilt. THEN, they always want to get involved in my relationships. Its what drives most of my girl friends away ???

When they feel like something is wrong with me, they always want to "talk about it". Sometimes, I just want to be left alone, but they don't understand that because they're like the friggin Brady Bunch, they're always happy and skippy, and chipper. People like that piss me off when I'm depressed XD

Dad (39 years old)
My dad is quite a card. He does the best he can, but he's a weirdo sometimes. He's awfully strict sometimes, and he gets worked up about the smallest things.
"Who left the *navi* left the vacuum cleaner plugged in?!?"

Mom (37 I think)
My mom is also quite a character. She's a worry wart. She won't let me go anywhere without knowing why, and who's going to be there. She's extremely nosy. She likes to read everything I type over AIM after I type it, and she gets on to check. There is a big company for nosy parents, which really sucks.

Sister (11 years old)
STUPID. How she manages to get A's in school shocks the hell outta me. She waits for me to finish up what I have to do on the computer by watching Disney Channel(which I also hate a whole lot), right next to the computer. There are 5 TV's in the house, and uses the one right by the computer. I listen to music, so she turns her "Hannah Montanna" up so loud that it hurts her ears, just so that I can't hear my music. Then, she wastes the rest of her day playing the Sims. I swear to god, she thinks she has friends, but they're only mean to her. I tried to explain that her, but she won't listen to a word I say. She's daddy's little girl, so when she cries, she gets her way, and believe me, she knows how to fake it.

Wiki (mah kitty)
She's probably the softest thing in existence. I wuv her so much, because when I need a hug, she's always there to cuddle for a while XD
She's been sick though, and she's been throwing up. Instead of finding out whats wrong, my parents have decided to take her to the animal shelter. I won't let them take her no matter what happens.

ZV (15 [I'm turning 16 soon ^^] years old)
I wake up in the morning, eat breakfast, clean up, and watch a little TV. After that, I usually play either SSBM, Majora's Mask, or Naruto Clash of Ninja 2. When I'm bored with that, I hit the net, and talk to all my friends. I have to do that before my sister wakes up though, or she'll nag the heck out of me to play Sims. Soon after, my mom gets home from work, and yells at me for the chores I forgot to do. Then we eat dinner. My sister always eats faster, and pretends to be full, so she can fly up the steps and play the Sims before I can hit TDC. I live with the reward of being full, and I don't regret it XD So then I usually talk on the phone with a friend, play a game of pool, and call it a day. My life gets more interesting than that, but thats during the school year.... ::)

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

Yeah, I remember the whole AIM fiasco with your mom...good thing she never found that conversation when I was smoking rocks...::)

Anyways, our sisters are almost exactly alike, but you already know that. In fact, you're probably the only one here who knows my family...::)

I don't know if I'm going to explain my family to everyone...Baka knows it too actually...it's weird how I'm using this smiley every paragraph...::)

Zelda Veteran

Sometimes I really wish they would leave me alone though.

While caring is great, it's just like pretty much anything -- too much can kill you. Or, in this case, your personal life.

Some people want caring parents, some want parents who care less... It's personal opinion, really.

Look, I made a topic that's actually decent! O:

Zelda Veteran

lol! That makes a lot of sense. I suppose the grass is always greener on the other side, no? And this was a good topic! Nice one Fisk ^_-

Lol.... I'm starting to think that a large percentage of us have younger sisters who are into the whole "Hannah Montana" and "HighSchoolMusical" craze. Just curious, but were they into Hilary Duff when Lizzie MGuire was "in"?
My sister like worships this poster she has on her wall of the basketball guy from highschoolmusical.... it annoys me to no end  :-X

DW

My sister..was the exact same way...she recorded four versions of High School Musical and kept playing it...then she read in Disney Magazine that it was overplayed and stopped watching it. 8)

Having an older brother isn't too great.

He calls me an emo, and once said I was a "disgusting goth" while we were shopping, so I ran away from him, anyone who has seen my pictures in the face book will know I am neither emo nor goth.

He is obsessed with Bob Dylan and other artists like that. And he is vain (in my opinion) he had relatively straight hair, but in an effort to be more "Indie" spent his whole time scrunching it just so he could get that, messier than thou look.

He's quite nosy though so much so that he noticed I was on this website and decided to make an account. And everyone knows what happened then. I tried getting an account on his Bob Dylan Forum but they refused me because I chose Bob Marley as my username.

Yeah he is awesome though, and uber protective which is nice to a degree and he is eally clever, he knows more about politics than anyone in his school. And he has the best sense of humour ever, seriously, he is funnier than anyone I have ever met /talked to.

My dad can be kinda... weird sometimes. If any of you have ever watched The Office, you could liken him to Michael, except for the accidentally offending you part.
