Today, my younger brother brought home his new bagpipes. My older brother plays the drums. I'm currently preparing to sit the most important exams of my schooling life. FML

Today, my little brother got a violin. FML
Today, during one of my final exams at university, the police academy across from the class decided to practice their marching. With the full band of bagpipes. For the entire 3 hours. I have a headache verging on migraine and start humming the marching beat occasionally. FML
Today, my older brother puked in the sound hole of my sister's guitar. He blamed it on me, and in revenge my sister beat me with the guitar. FML

Noise canceling headphones. They solve everything.

Hmm, so you have an iphone/touch, or a computer but earplugs or noise cancelling headphones haven't been invented? Strange.

Circumcise the skins and stuff the bladder full of haggis. If your brothers can handle that, then **** up their instruments!

Get together with your parents and come an understanding about your needs so they can make sure your brothers practice around your studying.

40, its called a "break". It's when you stop doing something for a little while so you can relax.

you can get silencers for both drums and pipes (I think so for pipes anyway). Tell them to get them and use them. btw before some self-righteous individual corrects me in saying that they do not 'silence' the instruments. I used the word silencer because I have forgotten the actual name for it and it was the closest I could think of.

No, you cannot get silencers of any shape or form for pipes :)

Yes, you can. It's called a knife. An ice pick will also do the job admirably.

You're stupid not to think of a quite place or telling them to SHUT UP. Australians...sigh.

First off, #59 you're an a$$hole. Secondly, anyone who lives in Queenland knows that it's quite possible the kids closest library could be a few towns away. This is a mother-effing big state people. As for staying at school? He'd only get an hour of study time before the school library closed at 4:00pm. Anyone with teenage siblings should know that asking them to stop or quiet down is pretty much like telling them to do the opposite. Also to the OP, you can't study for QCS... its a multiple choice test. And seriously your end of year exams can't be that hard, they pretty much hand feed you what you have to do for an A. Besides, if you're worried about your overall position, that is determined LONG before your end of year exams. Bagpipes... that's f*cking awesome.

61, I am NOT an asshole. I'm just stating my opinion, what's so wrong about that?
