2. Refuse to believe the tooth fairy dosen't exsist, and then cry and whine if you don't get the money...
3. Same with Easter Bunny
4. Always tell them how when you're older, you could never bare to leave them, so you'll be living with them.

The Easter bunny doesnt exist????
Tell them at age 7 that youve decided school isnt for you, and that you want to live in a cardboard box..

Apr 19 2005, 02:53 AM
all right, here is mimola's 5 top ways to annoy her parents.
1. tell them you've lost your cell phone, and after 5 minutes of them freaking out, tell them you were only joking and they should pull the broomsticks out of their bums
2. turn up your music really loud, and when they ask you to turn it down, motion that you can't hear them. when they get to the point of yelling, pause the music and say "all right, you don't have to yell"
3. hide all of the laundry baskets in your closet for 2 days
4. hide the converter (remote control, clicker, whatever you'd like to call the tv channel changer) for a week and then when they're not looking, put it on the coffee table and make fun of them for not being able to find it.
5. when they ask you things about school etc. stare at them as if they are stupid and then say that you don't understand english (or your language) in another language.
all of these have worked best on my parents.

Apr 19 2005, 08:19 PM
More ways:
1. Moo when they say your name
2. Pluck out people's hair and yell "DNA"
3. Wear a sticker that says "I'm a retard"
4. Pretend to beat yourself up
5. Switch the light on and off for a while and say "Ooo! I get it now!"
6. Fill the bathtub up to the top and play tidal wave

Those two where my faves...
Eat all the chocolate and or sugar orientaded products in the fridge/pantry/cupboards/whatever, then, when they ask where the chocolate, march up to them (face covered in chocolate) and shrug.
Communitcate by writing on a board or your hand.
Refuse to bathe.
Put things in the blender, and leave the lid off...N.B Particularly good with Soup...
Don't tidy your room. If your parent threatens to go in there and throw everything away reply, 'Oh good! I need getting rid of things!' - worked well on my mum...
If they ask you to pass the 'whatever' or give me a piece of 'whatever' touch each piece.
Most importantly, be yourself!
These all worked on my mum...be warned...you WILL be punished...

Good one, but my mum, would actually say 'Oh that's good, you have far too much stuff' the she'll disappear come back with a bin bag. and start throwing everything out. Which is not good.
* Borrow, their CDs and don't give them back.
*when you go round to their house (i live away from home, but same city and i'm round there alot) eat all of their food, and moan that there's no beer.
*Stay on the net for ages, and run up the phone bill.
*When your mum's on the phone pick up the other phone and yell 'Whazz up!'
*Play with a yo-yo in the lounge, right by the lamps and TV, believe me, this make's your folks insane.

Ooo...i like this one:

2. wear all black and listen to hard rock music really loud
3. when you're in a car annoy them by burping the alphabet
4. when you're in a car, annoy then by humming real loud
5. when you're in a car annoy then by making noises with your mouth

When they call you, pretend you can't hear them, then, about the time they are REALLY starting to get angry, go to them, and say 'Sorry, couldn't hear you' then, walk off with an angelic smile.
Put a song/band they REALLY hate on, and turn it up real loud.
Jordan94
Apr 21 2005, 07:24 PM
OK, a couple more that i copied and pasted from another site... (Dont take me away!!
)
7. Pretend to be whatever's for dinner.
8. Repeatedly stare at people in public, lick your lips and say "I'm hungry"
9. Whenever they say your doing something you don't wanna do say "Larry will eat you alive".
10. Dance instead of walk
12. Repeat everything.
13. Repeat Everything.
14. Ask them are we at the psycho therapists in public as often as possible.

Hey, I like this idea... a thread for kids!
JD and Mimola definitely get the awards for the best ways to annoy parents! I love the hiding the laundry hampers one and playing 'tidal wave' in the bathtub... as well as asking 'are we at the psychotherapists?'... that's a good one!
Being a very good child, I do not actively
think of ways to bother my parents. However, I will share some of the ways in which I am, um, unintentionally successful at doing so.
1. Whenever you set the table, do the place setting backwards (knife on the left and fork on the right). I don't even do it to be annoying -- it's just out of habit.
2. When your mom or dad asks you to do something, say "just a sec! just a sec!" and prolong the process for an excruciatingly long time.
3. Argue about your curfew (and when I say curfew, I mean the time that you have to drag yourself off of VTM and go to bed... I'm not even talking about going out late with friends or anything, in my case

). For example, if your parent tells you to go to bed by 12:30, say "can I go to bed at 12:31? please? 12:32? 12:33? 12:34? 12:34 and thirty seconds?".
Yep... that's about all I've got for now.... I'll come back if I think of anything else....

Haha! I like this thread!
1.When I am in the car, after everything my mom says, I repeat it, example:
MOM: Yeah
ME: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
MOM: That's right, okay. Sure. Good.
ME: Good. Good. Good. Good. Good.
etc. etc.
2. Say really loudly, especially when you are in the car or a small space, "Bock, bock, bock, CHICKEN, bock, bock, bock, CHICKEN."
3. ALways speak of the computer. For example, if you are at dinner be like, "Hey, I was talking to -" (just say) "-Martha the other day on AIM, AOL instant messenger."
4. Chew gum really loud. (This is also a good sister-annoying thing too...)
5. WHenever they say anything to offend you, turn your head and walk away, ignoring their protests.

Dress in rags and tell people your parents feed you out of the garbage.
When your parents introduce you to one of their friends/coworkers, say something along the lines of: "Isn't that the lady you said you don't like cause she smells bad?"
Fill your Mom's hairspray bottle up with water.
Have a suprise party for your parents, but only invite your own friends.

May 8 2005, 09:12 AM
just speak to them in a different language like when my mum shouts at me i speak in thai or chinese because we are english so she doesnt know what they mean and it really anoyys her. if you dont know any different language just say a bunch of words that have just come to you eg. unker lep saw nank. and say it was arabic or something.
also if they shout out you and pretend to be dumb or just say sorry i didnt here you can you repeat what you were shouting.
or fill there shampoo with glue or hair die and mix it with colouring so it looks like there colour and when they use it and they say how did it happen say what and turn around and start laughingamd say how did that happen but you might get grounded for some of these.

Talk in Harry Potter-ish
For example:
"Yeah, I cast a cheering spell on you, you look a little grumpy you know? so anyways, I go and help out the muggles with the Knarl, they still don't know it's not a dog, and then I pull out my wand and did this little charm to settle it down and they just went CRAZY! Oh! Did you know we won the Quidditch game against Valders? My chaser skills really came in handy with that quaffle! The Beater, Jordan, is REALLY cute, I should make a love potion..."
I dunno, it really ticks off my parents.

Those are good!
1. Try to avoid subject with chores, example:
"SO I've been thinnkig you should cook 3 nights a week, your cousins do."
"Oh, that reminds me, I was talking to her the other day, and we wanna go and visit, oh, and thats close to a friend i know, so cna i meet her?"
2. get out all of the good food in your house and *it works even better with a friend over so that they can help clean uo or whatever* make a big stew, or mush.s...though it annoys them, you still have to do the clean up, 85% of the time. (My dadd let me and my friend do this. My frind put in like 3 tablesppons of ketchup x_x)
3. Not do your homework but be like, "well you wouldnt help me so i couldnt get it donne..." and "i was confused"
Thats all for now!

ive got some more here.
put pepper or salt in their coffee or tea and when they taste it say whats wrong in a mock tone.
sing along to a song that they despise.
if they are watching football cheer on for the opposite team that they are supporting for.
if they cook you meat say i dont eat meat anymore im a vegetarian and say you old animal killer. then when they cook you nothing with meat in say ive changed my mind. it just isnt for me.
be prepared that you will be punished for these..........
ill let you know when ive got some more lol.
lets party
ill add a bit more to this shall i.
instead of saying everything to them sing it and instead of walking dance around your house.
when they tell you something say what what what.
pretend to have your tongue stuck to your bottom lip and talk to them.
always go on about pollution and when you go into a supermarket and you go past flowers or meat shout that is killing the creatures of our world and that is cutting our oxygen down. then sit on the floor and protest and to everyone that walks past you say fact about pollution like how much pollution aeroplanes cause.
when your out pretend to be a gay person and walk in a funny way and change your voice like they have.
when they take you to a fancy resturant say im not eating that it is causing diseases around the world that is and make sure everyone can hear you.
make silent phonecalls to them.
go in your room and shout hmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmm as though you are meditating and say to them when they come in that you had a hard day and you are trying to relaxe and then continue shouting.
keep badgering your mum that you want to watch porn.
be warned that this will come off hard on you.

I'm not a kid but I'll give you youngsters some I used.
1. Never show your work on math homework.
2. Do Math homework in PEN.
(these are really effective if your parents/gaurdians are teachers but particuarlly MATH teachers.)
3. Go to bed at ungodly hours (2AM at the latest please!)
4. Get up at ungodly hours. (4:30-5 AM seems the most effective)
5. Turn on your radio when you get up and turn it up about halfway.
(this is really effective if you have central A/C because the music will drift through the house via the A/C vents.) If you don't have central A/C turn it up as loud as you like.
6. Ambush your parents with silly string when they come out of their bedroom in the morning. (Also works well if they are coming through the door with a bunch of groceries.)
7. Jump out of closets or pantries to scare them. (especially effective if they have been looking through the house for you, but you need to be patient.)
8. Act like Dudley, but remember they can still punish you! Use rarely!

sit in front of the computer all day, then yell at them for not taking you to the eye doctor
in the middle of the niight, cut on all the lights and all the electronics, then blare the music as loud as it gets, then when they wake up cut the music of and pretend you're asleep.
throw your new harry potter book(s) at them until they read it to you because your eyes are messed up from the computer and they wont take you to the eye doctor
oh, and set your alarm for 5 in the morning, and go back to sleep hitting snooze when it goes off(make sure it's on the loud setting not gentle.) then when 7 or what ever comes, and they yell at you, tell them you lay there half asleep tring to get up. the later you set it, the later you get up(my parents hate this.... every morinin for a year and a half, lol... i think they just want an excuse now!)

My mom likes jokes so didn't get angry but be careful.

While you are walking down the sidewalk with your parents, climb up the sidewalk. (On all fours, pretend to be climbing up a building.) When they ask what the heck you are doing say, " Duh, I'm climbing the sidewalk." as if you do it every day. I did it and my mom got soooo annoyed.

Not being a kid, I can give you some insider information...
The best way to annoy your parents is to perfect the art of procrastination!
Believe me, there is nothing a parent finds more trying.
For those who dont know: Procrastinate means; to put off something, especially out of habitual carelessness or laziness. To postpone or delay needlessly.
This tactic can be used in almost any situation you wish. Be warned however, it is powerful stuff and should be used with caution!

You can talk in another accent. For example, my family is not british, so my brother annoys my mom by speaking in a british accent.
You can also tell your parents what animal they resemble. we call my mom a hippo. Then sometimes I make funny stories based upon my mom.

Ways to annoy parents with HP fandom
1. Talk for hours about how, in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry wares black socks when in the book it clearly says he is waring white.
2.Whenever you see a black dog scream :Omigosh, Sirius!, and give him a hug.
3. start talking about really complex Harry Potter stuff around them, and when they look confused say " Of course I wouldn't expect you muggles to understand"
4. Whenever you see a kid reading the first book mutter "amateur"
5. Insist on having a deathday party even though you're alive.

paper your room with barbie pictures and when they come in they will be like 'Gah'. this only applies if you are a boy though. if you are a girl put pictures of tellytubbies or anything babyish on your wall.
refuse to go to school and say that you have invisible chicken pox so you cant go.
if they tell you to tidy your room say "Fred is going to get revenge" and when they say who is fred go "duh my imaginary friend.
tell your mum she is being paranoid and that it is not normail for her to feed there kids.
in the morning say to her hi auntie murial. and then they go whaat. go hi auntie murial is something wrong. then they go what are you talking about. then go well that bump on the head was pretty nasty. then they will be like what bump. then go oh no youve got amneisia (loss of memory).

Whenever I am going somewhere they always tell me to be safe so this is what I say:
"Don't talk to stangers unless they're cute or have candy, wear a helmet at all times, look both ways before crossing the street, hold someone's hand at all times and you will be safe"
I don't know why but it annoys them.

Well...you could really annoy your parents by doing the fllowing:
Sit on the internet, logged onto VTM for at least 3-4 hours a day!
Albus-wan
Sep 28 2005, 07:41 PM
Hey Snapelover, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't your little girl too young to log on to VTM? That must be how
you annoy your
husband!
I guess in order to stay on topic, hmm...let me think about how I annoyed my parents when I was at home.
I had two dances I made up that made them wonder what they had done wrong as parents. One was the Spider Cleansing Dance. Technically, I didn't make that one up--I just gave a name to the spastic movements people make after running into a spider web or finding a spider on them. The one that made them worried was one I called the African Sock Dance, which involved swinging two socks around (again, spastically) and hopping on alternate feet.
I guess I've revealed a little too much of my inner geek (or is it dork? -- I sometimes get confused on terminology).
I think the most effective use of the African Sock Dance is to do it while one or both of the parents are having some sort of serious meeting in another room where they can just catch glimpses of you. Use it wisely--if you do it enough you might even catch your parents talking to others (almost proudly) of their child's weird dancing.

Albus-wan, I also enjoy the spastic dancing. Like where you cup you hand over your ear, then crab your ankle with your other hand and then bringing the opposite elbow and ankle together...Yeah I also get confused on the wordings.
Another thing is just use one phrase over and over....like when they ask you a question only answer "Pssh yeah." Or my favourite just answer 'ok' for everything.
