Yes, you read the title right. The Get-Along t-shirt. You may be wondering, \u201cWhat on earth is a Get-Along t-shirt\u201d or you may be thinking \u201comg omg omg I had one of those!!!!\u201d Well for those of you who already know what it is or had one growing up, sit back and enjoy the ride. For those of you who think I\u2019m insane, (I probably am) let me explain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Growing up, my brother and I were always arguing and getting into fights. These fights were usually physical fights. While my brother was big and buff, I was (as my dad likes to call me) a little shrimp. My brother was almost always about 12 inches taller than me so if he even breathed on me I would fall over. I quickly learned about this and took this to my advantage. If he even so much as touched me, I would start screaming and crying just to make sure he would get in trouble. I was a nightmare of a younger sister. Basically I would go up to my brother, screaming and kicking him and he couldn\u2019t do anything about it or else he would get in trouble. (And I always wondered why he hated me.)<\/span><\/p>\n

I remember one year for Christmas my brother and I got an xbox 360 to share and we were both so excited. The thing is, on top of that, I also got an iPad mini and my brother didn\u2019t. My brother didn\u2019t think this was fair. Our parents said this was because he was most likely always going to be using the xbox and I was never going to get a chance to use it (which turned out to be true) but he didn\u2019t like that answer.<\/span><\/p>\n

After Christmas was over and the Xbox was set up, my brother was stuck to it like glue. He would never let me have a turn. There were games which were split screen but he wouldn\u2019t let me play with him as he claimed \u201cIt makes the game harder to play and you\u2019re bad at the game.\u201d Years later I\u2019ve found out he was right about the game making it harder when it’s on split screen mode but he could have set it to east mode.<\/span><\/p>\n

After getting us an xbox and iPad to distract ourselves from each other didn\u2019t work, my mom resorted to other measures. My brother and I had been in the kitchen arguing about the xbox, yet again. Our mom had had enough and went upstairs to our dads wardrobe and got one of his shirts and brought it back downstairs and made both of us get in it. She called it the get along T-shirt. My brother hated the idea while I thought it was the funniest thing ever. I had to stand on my toes and on a stool just to peek my eyes out of the neck of the shirt while my brother stood there wearing it normally.<\/span><\/p>\n

When all else fails, clothing might just work. And remember kids, don\u2019t drive you mother insane like I did to mine.<\/span><\/p>\n
