    Younger brother refuses to be his chronically late 24-year-old sister's personal driver any longer, tells her he’ll leave without her if she’s late again: ‘She made me feel like I was just some better public transport for her’

    Sibling relationships are built on unconditional love, but they're also built on a sturdy foundation of ultimatums and meticulous timekeeping. For one long-suffering brother, chauffeuring his older sister around town has become less a gesture of family loyalty and more a recurring role as her personal Uber driver, minus the pay and with a lot more attitude. She doesn't drive because she claims she doesn't need it, and yet her ability to schedule rides with all the urgency of a last-minute pizza order is truly impressive.

    But the real pleasure in this brother's situation is that she's never on time. Not once.

    • Not for short trips, not for six-hour marathons, not even when her brother’s girlfriend has a meeting that actually matters. Reminders, calls, and warnings are met with the same blithe confidence: she’ll always insist she’ll be ready, which, in sibling code, means she’ll be at least fifteen minutes late and act like it’s your fault for caring.

    • AITA for wanting my sister to learn about consequences

    • So when the next family gathering rolls around and she requests another lift, our hero finally draws a line in the sand: show up on time, or enjoy the scenic route via public transport. Cue the inevitable outrage, as if expecting basic punctuality is some kind of personal betrayal.

      Is it harsh? Maybe. Is it overdue? Absolutely. Sometimes the only way to teach someone about consequences is to let them experience the joys of missing out. After all, nothing says I love you quite like leaving your sister behind for once, preferably right on schedule
