It’s so annoying how much my parents just project onto me. Like my brother is such a brat sometimes I just can’t anymore. He acts SO insanely rude and at this point I’m like his mom if that makes sense. If I did the shit he does I would get my butt whooped and grounded. And when I call him out, it’s ME who gets portrayed as the ‘bad guy’ or the ‘annoyance’. For example, we were at a pretty nice and cute izakaya and my brother (who can’t use chopsticks) started to DRUM WITH THE CHOPSTICKS. I told him to stop multiple times and he just didn’t listen. Am I too controlling or am I too easily irritated? Possibly. But picture him doing the same thing with a fork and spoon. It would hella annoying right? He just kept teasing and ragebaiting me the rest of the night and kept singing this stupid song “you mad? You sad? You gonna-gonna cry?” Honestly I felt like crying. I know it’s stupid and childish but I just felt overwhelmed being ridiculed all evening+seeing my parents blindly take his side
