How Do You Tell Identical Twins Apart? 

20. Apparently, my sister’s face is more round than mine (mine is more oval-ish), and when we were born my mom just straight up stared at us in the hospital until she could tell us apart.

21. No joke, my mom sharpie’d a “P” on my brother Pat’s foot. But after a while, it didn’t matter. Another person said it here, but the weight difference persists. His twin brother was and remained considerably bigger than he was.

22. I asked my mum this once. She stared at me like an idiot before very slowly explaining that my twin had a scar on their chest from their open-heart surgery…

A scar you can still clearly see…

That was the day I realized I was the idiot twin.
