My Little Brother's Stupid Genius Project

Anonymous Sly Wallflower #160 · General

So here’s the deal. My little brother is always up to something brilliant and annoying at the same time. He’s got this knack for coming up with these genius projects that are actually just elaborate pranks or ways to get out of chores. Last weekend, he decided it was time for a “sustainability project.” That means he gets free rein over our backyard to set up some kind of eco-friendly contraption. Guess what? He built a compost bin that’s basically a trapdoor with sprinklers and a motion-activated water cannon to keep the neighborhood stray cats away from his precious scraps. The first time I went out to get some air, I stepped right into it and got soaked head to toe. Mom thought it was hilarious until she realized how much this “project” ruined her perfectly manicured lawn.
