#the next youngest is 10 years old and has made the transition from thinking im the coolest person in the world

the funny thing about being an older sibling is watching as the younger siblings slowly realize what a loser i am

#/gen i really do find it funny #the sibling closest to my age is only 17 months younger than me #so he NEVER thought i was cool #the next youngest is 10 years old and has made the transition from thinking im the coolest person in the world #(since im allowed to go to the mall by myself and stay home alone and dye my hair and get piercings) #to thinking im a complete loser #my youngest brother is 7 years old #and he still thinks im cool #but i think hes starting to catch on to the fact that im just some guy #from his perspective i am an all-knowing deity with the most expansive minecraft knowledge in the world #as i know how to download mods and datapacks and make my own minecraft skins. #he also regularly requests that i 'take care of him' (his words) when mom has to leave before dad is home #but he also thought my eyebrow piercing was stupid #and is in general starting to realize how unbearably dorky i can be #(i finally understand why my parents are Like That. is is so fucking funny to watch kids get embarrassed because you did a stupid dance in #the bread aisle at walmart) #he also likes to call me nerd dork loser etc bc those are things i call my siblings all the time #^ not with any malice of course. being mean is my family's collective love language #it's that push and pull of being deliberately obnoxious and dorky so everyone else in the room can groan and call you an idiot yknow
