My sister cut all my hair off. Also cracked my skull, though that was mostly an accident.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I've sewn my little brother to his bedsheets, dumped Tang on his very wet hair, and sat on his chest until he turned blue.
I got my ass kicked when he turned 16 and shot up to 6'3" and started lifting weights.

All that sibling rivalry is apparently more important than we realized:
At research centers in the U.S., Canada, Europe and elsewhere, investigators are launching a wealth of new studies into the sibling dynamic, looking at ways brothers and sisters steer one another into--or away from--risky behavior; how they form a protective buffer against family upheaval; how they educate one another about the opposite sex; how all siblings compete for family recognition and come to terms--or blows--over such impossibly charged issues as parental favoritism.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I would sit on my little sister and dangle loogies over her face, and suck them back in at the moment of truth.
Course, a couple of time, gravity tricked me.
She always had claws though, and I was a nail biter, so I still have scars from her stratching the shit out of me. Mostly, we just rolled around on the floor hissing.

Mostly lurking...
Wow. Suddenly dressing my little brothers up in girls' clothes ('cause I really wanted sisters instead) doesn't seem so awful.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I can remember very few physical fights with my sister. (Except for one time. She was lying on the floor with a beanbag chair on top of her head, because the sun was bothering her eyes and this was apparently a better solution than closing the shades. I walked in, didn't notice her, and sat on the chair. Every once in a while, out of nowhere, the "You sat on my head!" "You were lying with a chair on your head!" will just emerge out of nowhere.)
Today, I showed my students "Donald in Mathmagic Land." They thought it was dumb. I'm disappointed in the youth of America. (And a bit of the youth of South Korea, too, I guess -- two of my students are from there.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
All I ever did was stab my sister with a fork.
Of course, the fork still had dog food on it, so that was kind of a bonus.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I now realise that I was a fantastic sister.
The only bad thing I did, really, was convince her that there was a monster under the bed. (And I may have added veracity by, er, hiding under the bed and waiting until she stepped sleepily out of it, and then grabbing her ankle and biting it while she screamed and flailed and screamed and screamed and screamed. A few times. Maybe. Which STILL amuses me so much that I'm actually weeping with laughter as I type, and making odd snorfling noises. And yet I maintain that that kind of torture is GOOD, because it was bringing a little magic into her life. Scary, creepy, dark magic, but magic nonetheless. It was like the flip side of pretending there was a Santa.)

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
Thanks Ailleann and Toddson. That was exactly what I was looking for!
There was no physical violence between my siblings and me. Of course, they were 12 and 14 years older, so that may have impacted things. There was some violence between my step-sister and me. I always felt horrible about it, but I see now that it was really pretty mild. Whew.
