Siblings can be your best friends or your worst enemies, and sometimes both in the same day. However, even the best sibling relationships have their own little wars. If you’re looking to get some revenge on your sibling, there are plenty of ways to do it. But be careful – they might get you back even worse!

Things You Should Know

  • Set their clock 4-5 hours ahead to confuse them. You can also try hiding some of their favorite things to get under their skin.
  • Empty their backpack and fill it with underwear right before they go to school.
  • Pick a prank that's appropriate for your sibling's age so they don't get too upset.

  1. You probably wouldn't want to use the same prank on an 18-year-old as you would on a 7-year-old. Try to find a prank that will be appropriate for their age.
  2. You can get them into trouble with your parents, or simply prank them. It’s generally best to leave your parents out of it unless it’s a really serious situation. You might as well get your revenge in a fun way through a prank.

  3. Make sure it isn't a predictable prank. There are so many great pranks out there, there’s no reason to fall back on one that's boring. Pranks have all sorts of levels of intensity so choose one based on how much revenge you're looking for.
    • If you know good pranks, write them in a notebook and keep it in a place no one would look such as in your desk, under a pillow, or in a box. Keep your ideas secret until you decide to act.

Getting Your Revenge at Home

  1. Then when you wake them up, tell them that they have slept through whatever they needed to do that day. And make sure you are dressed for the day when they wake up. Be careful though; if they accuse you, act innocent as if it were their fault. [1]
  2. Make sure to hand out the biggest portion of that dish onto their plate when it's being served.
    • Alternatively, you can use a food they like. If they really like ice cream, eat all their ice-cream, and leave the empty container in the freezer.
  3. Put their pencil case under the couch or their homework in the microwave. Try taking only one thing every day (something that they won't notice right away, like a pen). Hide it in your room and make sure it blends in with your stuff or simply hide it in your closet. Keep making the things you take more and more important to them every day, but don't take things that are very important to them. You can also do this to take revenge for them having a messy room if you share a room.
    • If they accuse you of hiding their stuff, deny it! If you act like you have no idea what’s going on either they might become even more confused.
  4. Buy some superglue that is invisible once it dries and glues all their deodorants closed. If you want to be really mean, you can glue all their soaps in the shower closed too. This will confuse them and then really frustrate them. [2]
  5. Leave a small gap towards the front. When they go to wash their hands, the water will spray them right in their face! This is a simple and effective prank. [3]
  6. When they scratch their nose or roll over to sleep on their side, they’ll end up covering themselves with whipped cream. Be careful however, as this might get you in trouble with your parents. [4]

Embarrassing Your Siblings at School

  1. If your sibling is at the point in school where they are writing a lot of papers on their computer, you can prank them using their word processing system. Go to “Autocorrect” under the “Tools” tab and change the settings to automatically replace normal words like “that” or ‘the” with ridiculous ones like “blarganauv” and “snoodle-shanks”. Change as many words as you want! If you want to really get them in trouble you can change the words to something like “my teacher stinks” and hope that they don’t notice it.
  2. Do this after they go to bed or before they head to school in the morning. You don't want to give them a chance to notice it and change it back. Change their wallpaper to something embarrassing, like a picture of them sleeping in a funny way. You know your sibling, choose something that you think would embarrass them. [5]
    • When they open up their laptop at school people will see their new background.
  3. Right before they go to school, find their backpack, empty it, and fill it with their underwear. They will be so confused, and it will also inconvenience them throughout the day.
  4. Introduce yourself and say, “Oh, you must be [insert name that isn’t theirs]”. When they say no, act confused and tell them that your sibling is always talking about this other person. This will get your sibling in some hot water! [6]

      Tips

      • If your sibling is crafty in the prank department and likes to get back at you, try topping them every time.
      • Hide under their bed while they're sleeping so that way, when they wake up, you can grab them by the leg if you are still not asleep.
      • If you have a gamer sibling, take all of their favorite video games that work and hide them where you know they won't be able to find them.

      • Empty their shampoo and conditioner bottles, then fill them up with a different shampoo and conditioner that has a weird color, consistency, or smell. If you're super mad at them, replace their shampoo and conditioner with whipped cream.
      • If you're taking things from their room, don't hide them with your stuff because then they'll accuse you of stealing. Instead, take one sibling's stuff and hide it with your other sibling's stuff so they'll get into a fight.
      • Try to pick a prank related to something they've done to you. For example, my parents got mad at me for waking up 10 minutes late so I set their alarm for 10 minutes later than normal.
      • A silly prank is putting something really hard, like rocks, in their pillow case. Just make sure you do it right before they go to sleep so they don't notice.
      • If you share a device with your sibling and have to split the screen time, adjust their time limit so it's much shorter than yours.
      • Fill all of your sibling's shoes with water so they won't be dry in the morning.
