This is not silly...lol. I can't say that hubby and I have fought over it...but there have been heated back and forth conversation over the merits of each side. Thing us.....each of us can argue either viewpoint.

I think it was silly because we actually got heated over it and we don't fight often.

Well you've never heard me sing. Some may have considered it abuse of the eardrums. But yeah, he was just in a bad mood (my ex, not the cat.)

My current and I once fought about bike laws in Philly.

Not with my wife, bc it has to actually be important to get me riled up, but my brother and I have had a million stupid fights.
Usually bc he thinks he is right about everything and I am too dumb to roll my eyes and move on.

The last one was about the Monty Hall problem. He could not believe the answer I was giving and lost his mind...his training as an engineer and physicist would not let him, and his training as a lawyer has now just made this worse.

They all end up in the same stupid place. We could start off arguing about whether or not Bacon wrote the works of Shakespeare, or international trade policy, or origin of life, or the causes of the Civil War...and it ends up in a meta-argument which is basically "you're a mean jerk & are rude to me"/"no I'm not".

Neither of is really the fighting type, so when we do argue, it's usually over something substantial. However, one incident comes to mind from when we were first dating: I inadvertently double-dipped a potato chip, and figured it was the perfect spring-board to make a Seinfeld reference, so I said it was like putting my whole mouth in the dip. In those days he was a rather brooding, melancholy young man, and didn't see the humor it in. He calmly replaced the lid, handed me back the dip, and broke up with me. I sat there with this dumbfounded look on my face, that anyone would get so upset over something so silly. About a week later he finally called; evidently he told our mutual friend of the incident, who in turn sat him down to watch that Seinfeld episode (which, unbeknownst to me, he had never heard of). After that he felt like a complete tool, and I made it my personal mission to loosen him up and inject some humor into his life.

Ahh yes, one of the worst pitfalls of dating in the 90s: the sexiest guys were always brooding. I'm glad you got him to loosen up!
