I have a love-hate relationship with Wikipedia. Like, I start reading an article and click on an interesting looking topic that is linked in the article, one link leads to another and I find myself reading something totally unrelated to what I initially came to Wiki for.

Lol, funny (only 200 real people - the rest are just beavers who've somehow acquired driver's licenses). Your brother sounds like an entertaining character (that actually isn't sarcastic).

Oh he is very entertaining. Or maddening. Or both. Like, you wanna punch him in the nuts but aren't very effective with the laughing your ass off. And even if he doesn't know anything about a subject, he's EXTREMELY good at spotting inconsistencies AND twisting your words around so, like, you'll spend half an hour explaining something to him and he'll just kill you with two sentences and make you want to pull your hair.

Which is why I never call him James. I always address him as "Sociopath". Unless mom's around. Then I call him "Stupid".

Ohhhhhhhh, people like that are frustrating/hilarious.

Well done.
I have a friend I address as 'Loserface' or 'Stupid Grade 9' (even though she's not). But it's out of love.
