My sister is like the epitome of female irrationality. Bordering on retarded, maybe. Perhaps that's going a bit too far. Perhaps.

So a week ago I get a fancy-shmancy new cellphone, a Sanyo with a camera and everything. It's kool. Turns out my 15 year old sister got the exact same thing a month ago.

Anyhow, my emotionally nutty 17 year old sister has been in dire need of a new cellphone for some time, and decides to get the same one we have, except a different color. So my mom goes out today and gets it for her at Radioshack.

20 minutes ago she calls me up to yack about the typical shit, and tells me how she got a new phone, yay! But oh, she doesn't want the camera....she's "never going to use it, fer sure". So she insisted that my mom take it back to Radioshack and return it for a model that is the exact same, except without the camera. Oh, and it costs the exact same too. Mom says "hell no, that's retarded, take yo own bitch ass down to da Shack and return it yoself". Whining and bitching on part of my sister ensues.

So she's telling me about she she absolutely does not want the camera in her phone, even if it means having to take it back for the exact same thing without the camera feature for the same fuckin price, and she doesn't understand what the big deal is because it's her decision. So I call her out on her retardedness and she blows up, says "why do you always have to be so rude?" (translation: why do you always have to call me out on my bullshit illogical thinking skills) and hangs up the phone, of course as always, before I have time for my retort that is sure to make her feel as stupid as she is.

WHY ARE GIRLS RETARDED? WHY?

 

[Error Macro]

Oh, phew. I thought you were going to say how your sister took your drunk friend upstairs and he raped her.

But yeah, girls are just retarded in general. Sorry ladies, but that's the awful truth.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

What the hell? No offense, but that is mighty dumb. Why bother if there is no saving, same model, and you have go through the trouble of taking it back? You should break her phone.

Wow. So the mental retardation runs in the family.

Rationality has no bearing with women, especially when concerning technology.

 

[norinrad21]

You were rude, no matter how retarded she is, she's still your sister and you will need her a few years down the road and after all she's just a teenager acting out on her emotions, you need to relax dude.

You were supposed to try to understand where she's coming from, show some comfort in what she's going through there was no need to be cruel to her. She's just a teenager. Most teenage girls are crazy.

My sister argues all the time with my mom about stupid shit and yet i try to get where she's coming from and i try to explain things to her but i'm never rude to her. I found out she values what i say and respects me so whenever she's in trouble or needs someone to talk to she calls me. Meh

It's a friggin' cell phone. What she's going through is PMS. Shoulda just kept your mouth shut.

oh yeah, yesterday she told me her period was about to start. eek

I didn't even get to the "GOD YOU'RE A RETARD" stuff yet. But she probably felt it coming. She knew she was making no sense....NO FUCKING SENSE WHATSOEVER. Anyways, she's always been like this, and not just a few days out of every month.

Holy shit that made me choke up my drink laughing

The part of genetics that makes her dim isn't the female part of it; it's the part that's related to you. Also, she's just a kid. What am I saying? Chances are, so are you.

 

[Eric-GCA]

I've never understood women, fortunately I'll probably never have to either

 

[luxsol]

Just wondering... is Demon the same guy who had his sister smash his chair (or something else that's relatively large/painful) on him for wanting it back?

 

[Asbel]

lol @ Macro and Shadow

But seriously, girls tend to have very different priorities from guys and it's priorities that govern your decisions, so you get a lot of guys thinking girls are stupid and vice versa. There's probably some reason that it's important to her, that's all you need to know. I wouldn't try to understand the other sex too much.

Awwww, did I hurt the girl's feeweengs?

And I'm 23. How old are you?

I understand that. And I understand that women tend to be more emotionally driven while men are more rationally driven. But there is absolutely zero rationality behind this.....she's just being dumb. And probably just for the sake of being dumb.
I'll admit though that she's probably one of the most logically insane people I've ever known, even for a girl, so this isn't so surprising to me I suppose. Consider this more of a rant about my sister then.

 

[Dujour]

MY BROTHER'S GOING TO MARRY THIS GIRL THAT'S SO SHALLOW! ALL GUYS ARE DUMB.

Do you realize what you're doing? Forget that I said it in a way you didn't like.

 

[Zaptruder]

Maybe she's afraid that her friends will start taking her phone and fucking around with it, with crappy pictures been taken of her; but instead of voicing these fears, which she might think are weak to defend, she just insists, 'irrationally' instead of having to listen to retorts on her reasoning.

Well at least that's the way I've been; I know how my family will respond to some of my reasoning sometimes, and the way in which they react makes it difficult to even fully explain much less convince them of my reasoning; moreover when I do, it always manages to come back and bite me in the ass. So generally I've got a pretty poor communication with my family in that sense

Shall we put in a qualifier for you? Why are women, on average, so fucking irrational?!

Then chances are, you'll marry someone just like that.

She doesn't have much of a social life right now, too busy with applying to colleges and making money babysitting and shit like that, so that's not really an issue.

Well duh. When all women are irrational, it's mighty hard to marry a rational chick, now isn't it.

 

[J2 Cool]

yep, women are really retarded. I try to treat em equal. I really do. Then they stump you. They say something so stupid you go over and over in your head about before you realize this is a retard's comment. Its ok though, I could love a retard.

 

[Asbel]

Maybe she hates the 'party' girls with camera phones and don't want to be like them by having a camera phone herself. She's a rebel against conformity, heh. Damn it, you're making me try to understand too much.

Gotta love these "irrational sister" threads.

As I am lifting this chair my sister hits me in my lower back. The complete shock of being stuck, plus the sheer force just made me drop the chair on myself as I fell backwards and hit the hardwood floor. It smarted pretty badly, and she was just complaining to my mom that the chair wasnÕt even in the air when I was lifting it to my parents.

 

[FortNinety]

You do realize that she's only going to get stupider as time goes on right? If you think she's bad now, just wait till she's 30.

 

[El Papa]

I'm glad I don't have a sister, I got into enough trouble growing up beating my brother's ass...

I feel sorry for the guy she'll eventually sucker into marrying her. He's going to be putting up with a LOT of emotional/drama shit from her.

Hehe, my sister can be really stubborn. If she decides on something, there are times when she will absolutely NOT change her mind. And when you ask her "why?", you don't get any particular reason. That's all. That's it, there's no way around it.

When she was younger, she totally refused to go to any other place than McDonalds for fast food. She didn't even bother to find out about other restaurants, she had barely been to any other place. All she wanted was McDonalds, because she liked it and had been there before. Kind of frustrating.

Thankfully, she's a bit more grown-up now and not really as stubborn...but the traces are still there. I mean, sometimes I try to send her a link or an mp3 song that's funny, but she usually refuses to receive it. She thinks it's too much trouble to recieve a file, so she doesn't want anything.

This is not meant to reflect the female population though. Just my sister.

 

[Zaptruder]

Your sister sounds like a friend of mine. Except he's a guy and it seems like he's built his life around irrational mirth. I have to use reverse psychology normally to get him to do stuff... although I don't think that's really that successful.

 

[aoi tsuki]

Guys, i'm doing a report on the link between irrationality and hotness of GAF member's sisters. It would really help me out if you could post pictures of your obviously hot sisters.

Thanks in advance.

Well, aren't you lucky! My sister is actually a Swedish photo model, and she wouldn't hesitate a second to send pics of herself in challenging poses to totally unknown males!

Oh give me a fuckin break. As the oldest of three siblings when my sisters say and do dumb shit I call them on it. They respect me for that and continue to come back to me for advice because they know I don't sugar coat shit.

My sister is not violent, but she is mentally draining. The way she deals with things just boggles the mind. And then theres the sudden emotional breakdowns, i simply cannot understand why women are so unstable

I'm not saying i don't call my sister out on dumbshit...

Demon seems to think his sister is a retard which is not the case here, she's a fucking teenager, they do dumb things most of the time there's no need to be an asshole to her.

Fuck i have had heated arguments with her in the past but at the end of the day she's still my only sister the only family i will have when my parents are gone someday....

what was so bad with what i said?...Jesus

If his sister is anything like my two, she probably IS retarded... I have two sisters who are brain intelligent, but would cross the street during rush hour without looking both ways... no f'n common sense whatsoever.

Both are adults and still do dumb shit... it didn't stop when they grew up, it's just different dumb shit now.

Ditto.

My sister is sometimes a bona fida idiot. I always call her out on her bullshit and illogical stupidity. My dad, however, is a feminized, supplicating, ass-kissing pussy when it comes to the female race (particularly in our family) and constantly puts up with my sister's shit. Guess who she has infinitely more respect for?

Honestly, I think some girls need guys to call them out on their shit and set them straight, or else I don't know how the fuck they'd survive.

Demon seems to think his sister is a retard which is not the case here, she's a fucking teenager, they do dumb things most of the time there's no need to be an asshole to her.

I have noticed the same kind of shit with older women, and I hardly ever remember me or any of my friends when I was younger lacking in logical skills NEARLY as bad as stuff like this.

Ok, I didn't go through and read a lot of the comments, so this could have possibly been addressed. But, is there a possibility that she had an incident in her life that was so painful involving a camera on a cell phone that she can't possibly have one on her phone or it'll remind her of that horrible incident?
