Thoughts for Thought

Boy Bands... Why?

[12/24/15]

Ah... The joys of the holidays. There's family, and friends around. Gifts to be opened up. Food, lots of it. The joyful songs about Santa sneaking into your house while your sleeping... What more can you want and how much of a perfect day can there be?

Sadly, not for this family.

There us just one thing that I always forget about this holiday:

A mentally unstable sister.

There's a point in your life where your finding out who you are as a person, and qualities such as music genre come along the question. I was lucky enough to steer away from that and go down the road of my father's tastes in the classics of rock and even orchestra. But my sister is another story.

I have NO CLUE where this corruption came from, but ever since she hit 12, it's been all about boy bands. That was three years ago and it's gotten worse...

And it's not just all boy bands, it's a very specific one that all of you know for a fact.

ONE DIRECTION

Oh yes, this chapter is about those fiv-FOUR guys, so stay strong.

Why do I know that Zayne left and now there's only four? My sister. Who had to put up with her anger and crying about "Her god forsaking her"? Me. I know about almost everything about them just because I live with a one directioner, and she literally breathes facts to me. I even know what size di- shoes they have.

Very useful, I know.

I love her to death, but when you realize your younger sisters life only consists of eating, sleeping, and Twitter, I think the line of infatuation is way over obsession for these guys by now.

These boys don't know what they've done to my sister. She's literally a psychopathic demon when it comes to them. I try to talk some sense into her, but frankly, that only got me a twenty minute rant on how they are perfect and larry is real.

For those of you not familiar with the one direction term, larry, it's basically this name for a relationship between two of the members Harry and Louis.

Apparently to my sister, all of them are gay besides her "Daddy", which is the one called Liam. Weird, I know.

But enough about complaining, I mean, they have SOME good songs that I would listen to and sing along with her on the radio to, but I'm just not getting the concept of HER reality towards them.

Now, of course being around my sister 24-7, you can catch on to many certain events that fold amongst her 1D bubble. Such as birthdays. This particular birthday is on Christmas, and I bet all of the one directioners know who's B-Day I'm talking about.

Louis Tomlinson.

I'm afraid he's the one to blame on ruining my Christmas' the past three years. I hide in fear, waiting for her to realize what was coming on every December.

Luckily for me and everyone who have had enough of this boy bands popularity, they're talking a break currently. And the directioners lay low for a while and stroke they're merchandise from the past shows. Hell even water bottles! This 1D thing is crazy!

I bet there's a half eaten banana that was thrown away by Harry Styles being sold on eBay for 5 million dollars, and no matter how rotten and moldy that fruit will get, some spoiled white girl with buy it and smear it all over her body like it's the tears of Jesus himself.

My sister will probably be the eligible white girl smearing rotten banana on herself. Yeah its that bad. But I cant say one direction hasn't gotten us more closer as two teenage sisters who occasionally support each other and bicker over the lumps of hair in the bathroom tub drainer which is obviously hers- that enjoy and share a type of pop music together. We even highlight smut stories about the guys and sit there, laughing at the sex scenes being read aloud from her phone!

So I have to at LEAST thank 1D and the fandom for those long ago memories with my sister.

But back to the point, plain and simple! I hate Christmas and I'll probably have a nephew named after them later on in life.

Q: Do you like One Direction? Do you live with a 1D lover? Tell me in the comments!
