     A younger brother tells of the pratfalls he has faced at the hands of his older brothers.
I will say it now, and I will say it again: NEVER trust a brother over the age of twelve!

The reason I say this is because I have done this very thing myself (I am ten, going on 11), and I have fallen for their stupid tricks each and every time!

For example, Michael (he is 14, and he is a pain in my REAR!) said he had a surprise for me, and when he gave me the "surprise", all I ended up with was a face full of shaving cream! (He had a pie tin full of shaving cream, and when he called me to see his "surprise", he got me a good one when I came into the room. Boy, was I ever MAD!!)

Another time, Richard (he's older, by about a year) tied my shoelaces together, and when I went to stand up on my braces and crutches, I ended up falling flat on my face, and I bruised my poor little nose, and it swelled up like a tomato! I hit my face on a wooden floor, and wooden floors are NOT soft!

A third time, Anh (he's the oldest boy in our family) snuck up behind me and blew one of those horns they have at football games--right in my ear! I about pooped my pants, he scared me so bad!

I don't know why my older brothers like to play tricks on me, but they DO! They must really think I am stupid or something: I MUST be, because each time they try to do one of their tricks on me, I fall for it, each and every time, and it REALLY BUGS the SNOT outta' me! I wish I could get even on those dumb brothers of mine; maybe then, they'd learn to leave ME the heck alone! What are they trying to do? Give me a heart attack? Do they have a death wish against me or something??

It seems these tricks on me get worse every Hallowe'en. Now, I know Hallowe'en is supposed to be a scary time of year, but a guy like me can only take so much, and besides, my heart won't be able to take much more! If I suddenly fall over and die of a heart attack while my stupid older brothers trick me, I am going to HAUNT them for the rest of their sorry lives! If I die, I am blaming THEM! And booooooy, will they ever have hell to pay....That'll learn 'em!

Older brothers. UGH! Who needs 'em??

That was so cute. I did that kind of stuff to my little brother. Then one day I woke up and he was 6ft tall. That stopped all the pranks. Lol. Loved the story.
