I'm guessing you're the eldest in your family, right? !ninjaaaa

I personally would tend to disagree with this study, being the second born and what not.

Do you know who conducted the study? A load of slow-witted first borners, that's who. The First Bourne Conspiracy.

actually amusingly enough, in purely educational terms every younger sibling in my family has out preferomed their elder sibs, the youngest fella by quite a substantial ammount

but what does that prove? book smarts? tsk tsk...

If only I was a first born child, then I could come up with some witty riposte.

to be fair I have huge respect for you, being born second, youngest AND a girl... I mean, most people would've just quit right there, but you struggled on!

Tragically I moved out of home quite young, so my sibs never had the benifit of every REM album on C90 cassette, my collection of Pavement 12 inch singles and Neds Atomic Dustbin records... poor sods...

Yep, have to say, my bro had pretty amazing taste in music AND I got to wear Sonic Youth and Misfits T-Shirts to tennis lessons before I even knew who they were. (My ma used to dress me in these if my tennis gear wasn't clean and I'm sure my brother went spare.)
