From the silliest of everyday pranks to nonchalant goodbyes that mask sorrow, a brother-sister relationship is one that traverses a multitude of emotions. When describing a bond as colourful as this, the mention of typical pranks and stunts is a must.

While the standard little games range from a distraction to steal your favourite cookie or grab that window seat you can’t do without, pranks of a higher grade can go to the extremes of hiding your first-day-at-work attire or covering your beloved walls with their stupid art.

There probably is not a single day when this lifelong war of nasty tricks and naughty games is put on pause. If one day your brother hides the pictures you need to complete your project, the next day, if not the very next second, you fight back by unplugging the video game he happily sat playing. And for deleting his game progress and destroying his chance at a high score he paints your cherished scrapbook in shades of dirty brown and black. You decide there is no forgiving his crazy antics and rise to another level of jape when you give him a glass of milk playing the nicest sister. He raises his eyebrows in doubt, unable to believe your pretense. But thinking you changed for the better for once, he takes a sip and you contentedly watch as his face immediately twists in disgust for it certainly wasn’t sugar that you added.




It doesn’t stop here. It doesn’t stop ever. Not even on the auspicious Raksha Bandhan day. Oh boy, you know your sister knows all of your likes and dislikes. She also knows how much you hate the color pink. But knowing her, guess what colour rakhi she decides to get you?  And still do you back down?  Do you sit and frown? Staring down at that hot pink band laced with baby pink threads on your hand does not leave you furious, for what you plan to gift your sister is enough and more to get back at her. Her part done, she asks for her gift which you, like a responsible brother, hand over to her. Oblivious to her fate, she opens the well wrapped box only to let out an ear-piercing scream. Out jumps the plastic counterpart of an insect or so; a spider, her worst nightmare. Common gifts on this day also include just one sock, or even an incomplete pair of earrings.


There also is the regular set of cannot-do-without pranks; ones that require not a lot of effort but still are worth one’s time and energy. This list includes a large variety such as hiding the favourite shoe, scribbling all over a notebook, tying their shoelaces together, posting the worst pictures of the other on social media, filling his/her bottle up with the drink they most dislike, and the like.



Other examples include building a newspaper wall outside your sibling’s door for him/her to walk into right after they wake up, ruining another morning for them. Putting away your sibling’s project in an ocean of folders will for some time have them baffled until they remember search button, the savior. Many also try covering their sibling’s everyday items with paper or duct tape; enough to get anyone furious.


There are also a number of these that require careful planning and very neat execution. For instance, substituting the cream inside your brother’s special Oreo cookies with toothpaste demands an immaculate course of action to prevent any doubt. If your sibling fears the dark or horror movies or creepy instances in general, there always is a provision to quietly, very quietly, sneak up to their door and scratch on it or produce other frightening unnatural noises. This will be enough to have them shaking under their bed-sheets or squirming to let out a scream. Or better, find yourself a mask that you’re sure will give them a nasty scare.

 Another classic one? Drawing a mustache on the other’s face while they’re asleep is sure to wreak havoc on a busy Monday morning. Hot sauce experiments on your sister’s lunch are positive to result in chaos. And at the height of such warfare lies the king; printouts of fake adoption papers with your sibling’s details. There is no trick as devious as this one. There never will be one either.
As is very evident, siblings seem to have an almost non exhaustive collection of annoyingly savage schemes of this sort up their sleeves. An end to such atrocities against fellow siblings, you ask? Never. Sibling wars know no end!
