If you're in a long-term relationship with someone, you two will argue, it's written in the Bible. The trick is to avoid fighting over meaningless stupid things, reserving your energy for dialogues that can change your everyday life for the better. Sadly, it's easier said than done. Recently, people started sharing the ridiculous things couples fight about, hilariously poking fun at the times everyone just could have kept their mouths shut.

Reading the stories under the hashtag #StupidThingsCouplesFightAbout, it's evident that we often lose our cool and get angry over completely stupid things. What are things that couples fight about exactly, you ask? Well, from correctly placing a roll of toilet paper to deciding who is more tired, these situations perfectly describe every relationship ever. Scroll down to chuckle at the stupid disagreement that shouldn't exist in the first place and upvote your favorite couples arguing about absolutely nothing.

We have a rule that saves us I swear. Our rule is that if you say no to one place then you have to offer another place. Your only participation can't be criticism.

Oh, I hate this so much. I feel like this is what brings us together, that we only have this experience with each other, that it's "our" show.

We don't fight about it...but my wife has watched several more episodes of "Stranger Things" than I have, and I have to be careful I don't overhear spoilers when she's talking about it on the phone with her mother

I started watching Mr. Robot, my wife walked in on the second episode and got mad and said she wanted to watch it. So we started watching it, then she got bored with it and didn't want to watch it, a few months later I start watching it again and wife walks in and asks me why I am watching it without her. This was a year ago, I still have not seen Mr Robot.

I watched a show without her once, we started from the beginning so she could watch it but spent the entire time on her phone.

My husband does that but only in the guise of previewing and making sure I want to see it because I'm much more picky about the movie I want to see and he doesn't mind watching things twice. He never spoils.

I don't think this is THAT big of a deal as long as you are both willing to watch the episodes again together.

My husband has taught me to be specific when asking him to bring something at home, right down to the measurements if possible. Otherwise he will buy what he thought was right, even though he never saw me buy it before, and it would make me angry that and he would not understand. So to save us all and to retain peace at home, we must be specific ladies; brand, color, size, weight, the aisle where to find it if you can remember it. This way he will always bring what you asked for, no fights

That happens all the time. My boyfriend does not care what we should watch, then I choose something to watch and less than 5 minutes later he stops watching and complains that he does not like that and then I have to let him choose. Because of that we have seen all episodes of Mythbusters probably over 3 times... :D

It is possible to buy bathtub plumbing that automatically switches back to tub mode when you turn off the water. It is very simple and works on water pressure (or the lack of it).

Disagree. If I sound even a little bit less than ecstatic hubs starts in with "what's wrong?" and when I say nothing he tells me I sound upset. I say I'm fine and he argues with me about it until I'm pissed. I WAS fine, now I'm sick of you telling me I'm not! Get the hint, even if I'm not fine if I say I'm fine, leave me alone!

"When the cat is cute, she's mine. When the litter box needs cleaning or if she's sick... she's yours." Yup... :P (Bf really did say "look at OUR kitty, so adorable" once and another time it was "ew YOUR cat puked again"... He loves them nonetheless though, he just can't clean the litter box)

We just ask the other if they want the left over or not, sometimes you can change your mind and not want it, and if the other person wants it then sure why not, better than wasting the food.
