Just a few moments ago I tried to ask my brother if he remembers a movie we watched as kids but he spoke over me started making a conversation with my dad, tried this two more times and the same thing happened, until I pointed it out.

This happens to me all of the time with them! The day before this I explained something to my dad (i was sitting right next to him) and then my brother said the exact same thing; so I obviously pointed out that I had just said that, to which my brother actually noticed and said "yeah, but for some reason he wasn't listening to you"

It drives me mad like sometimes when I try to say something to him and he doesnt respond, I'll say it a couple of times but he will just snap and be like "WHAT MAN?!" So I usually don't bother now.

Also, I always buy him CDs for his birthday because we have a similar music taste. I recently bought him an ELO cd. Last week he asked my brother (who doesnt listen to them) if he wanted to go with him to see them in concert, when I questioned why not me, he just did an awkward laugh because we're the type of family who just find it humorous to put each other down.

I feel like I dont even have enough energy to be a part of this family, I don't even know what I'm supposed to do when they are being obnoxious, whether that be them calling me fat when im 9 stone or just ignoring the fact that I live among them and not just exist when they want to communicate with me.
