Greg totally has Little Brother Syndrome, when he heard Alysa read 25 pages he read 30 just to be better than her. Little does he know "Learn ABC's with Caillou" is not on par with "War and Peace."

Little brother syndrome - what is it?

The inverse of paranoia about the governing power or establishment collecting information about an individual. (See Big Brother) Those afflicted by little brother syndrome intentionally share and broadcast information about themselves via social networks, check-in websites, and GPS devices, often with little regard to personal privacy, or long-term consequences. Possibly a form of exhibitionism, this definition of Little Brother Syndrome may be related to, or even a consequence of another definition of Little Brother Syndrome wherein a person vies for attention to make up for feeling under-appreciated.

Grover apparently doesn't care who knows all about him, as he posted his home address, salary, and cell phone number to Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, and Wikipedia today. He's definitely suffering from Little Brother Syndrome

What does "little brother syndrome" mean?

A person that is really good at being a goof ball and breaking the tension of situations through comedy and playful antics. But at the same time, has a hard time ever taking things seriously or taking responsibility for things, expecting or assuming others will simply come to help out when needed. This is often how little brothers can behave, hence the term.

Sean is always getting parking tickets, and it's 'never his fault.' I used to feel bad, but now I just laugh at him. His older brother doesnt get it, and his mom just always bails him out. I don't get the guy, but he's a blast to be around. He has total little brother syndrome.

An ingrained fear reaction that younger siblings show towards an elder. If properly nurtured can result in reactions such as flinching when the older sibling walks past even though the younger is taller, bigger and stronger and 18+. This can also result in a defeatist attitude and outcome when in confrontations with the older sibling.
