Why Buttering Up a Roommate Doesn’t Work

Butter and a butter knife

Growing up as sisters, we shared a childhood bedroom. With our vast age difference (Patty is old enough to be Gina’s mother), we really had little in common except that we couldn’t stand each other. We were constantly fighting and looking for ways to make the other look bad. Gina, for example, used to hang Patty’s bra out the window and yell “My sister wears a bra.”  Though we threw our share of insults at each other, we never did what the lady in the article below did to her roommate. And it’s not just because we used margerine in our home.

What about you? Did you attempt to butter up a sibling growing up?
