Give them what they've always wanted : A brother or sister.
<I fully accept that not all only children wish that they had a sibling. But for those that do, this webbased service could find their ideal brother or sister within their local vicinity. They can go climb trees together, or collect fossils.>
SOCS V2.0 now includes :
2.1. I wanted a sister, but got a brother, so I'm swapping. 2.2. Swap my sibling for a nicer one. 2.2.1. Swap my sibling for someone who is likely to be famous in the future. 2.3. I have too many siblings. Can I swap a brother for a cat? 2.4. Exchange sister for someone altogether less annoying.-- jonthegeologist, Jan 02 2004 "Just how close are Angelina Jolie and her brother?" http://archive.salo.../2000/03/28/nptues/Old Salon article and likely phoe's motivation.

I'd build a fort with Mila Jovanovich anytime.-- Letsbuildafort, Jan 02 2004 "I mean, she might make a perfectly cool person to just buy beer for you, but ..." Hey, that too. I'm flexible.
It's nice to see you around, by the way.-- phoenix, Jan 03 2004 Ha I like it, but once you swap your sibling can you ever swap back if you realise you made a mistake?
Is there any charge to this service?-- magic_ki, Mar 09 2004 I've got 1 brother, but my sister has 2.
Can we have some way of redressing this imbalance ?-- pjd, Mar 11 2004 [pjd] suspect this is not the idea for you ... try googlin' for sex change operations ;)-- jonthegeologist, Mar 11 2004 2.5 - I have an older brother, but I'd rather have a younger one.-- phundug, Mar 11 2004 random, halfbakery
