  1. Remind your younger sibling that you’re older, smarter, and wiser—but don’t be too controlling to avoid crossing her boundaries (remember, you’re not her mom). By focusing on the fact that you were born first, you highlight your age difference in a fun and playful manner.[2]
    • “Again, who was born first?”
    • “Because of you, I never want kids👀👶🙅‍♀️😂”
    • “I’m the reason you were born, and you’re the reason mom and dad decided to stop having kids.”

  1. Browse social media to get inspiration for this one-liner, or take a few minutes to think of one on your own. Focus on harmless quirks or silly habits that your sister has to really hit home and deliver a savage roast.[6]
    • “You’re the type of person to respond to spam emails.”
    • “You’re the type of person to measure your sleep with a ruler.”
    • “You’re the type of person to wash their hands after a shower.”
    • “You’re the type of person to look up and down before crossing the road.”

Tips

  • Focus on small quirks and habits that your sister chooses to do, instead of things she can’t change about herself. As a general rule, avoid talking about her weight, relationship status, embarrassing moments, or major insecurities.[13]
  • If you have more than one sister, be sure to spread your jokes around to maintain a good relationship. If you only tease one sister, it could unintentionally hurt her feelings and make her feel singled out.[14]
  • Try to deliver your lines in a friendly and lighthearted way. A smile, giggle, or squeeze on the shoulder can reassure your sister that you’re just teasing her, or you can throw out a “just kidding” if you think you might have offended her.
