Who is wrong? (Very petty)

[InAPickleToday]

A three seater sofa with a windowsill to its left. Person A sits on the left side of the sofa and uses it to put their drinks on it. Person B sits on the right side of the sofa and puts their drink on the floor, down the side of the sofa.

Person A has knocked B's drink over a fair few times now and person B gets angrier each time. Saying A should remember that their is a drink on the floor. Person A thinks B should put their drink on the coffee table or fireplace 3 steps away, a drinknon the floor is bound to be knocked over. Person B says this is unfair. Person A says B is being lazy.

Who is right?

Guys, search for 'slide-under table' or 'end table' to find a table like those mentioned. I fancy one myself!

Who knew there were so many solutions for placing drinks on a sofa?!

Trouble with buying those tables, tempting as they are, is that possessing one instantly marks you out as a couch potato :)

Is B a very slow drinker
Exactly, B needs to drink faster too.

I wonder if there's a drink support that can be hung from the ceiling.

Also, for hands free no knock over drinks see photos.

Or... forbid drinks outside the kitchen. Sorted.

I'm with B on this one.

knock it back in one then swap places.

Does A always hog the window seat? Was this a one off or regular occurrence?

A can't be very bright.

We have drinks on the floor here. If they get knocked over the knocked over is at fault and must clean the mess.

This is why we only sit on the side of the sofas that have somewhere to put our cuppas. You need to invest in a small end table for the side of the sofa because cups shouldn't really be on the floor and both A and B are at fault. For not buying somewhere to safely put your brew!

Well person A knows the drink is there and I very much doubt they naturally walk with feet so close to edge of sofa.

So person B is right.

A is in the wrong for knowing there’s a drink on the floor (as B has no real alternative) and keeping knocking it over.

A should swap with B and let them have the windowsill if they’re that forgetful.

Or those tables that fold out to the height you need to eat your dinner off - I was really surprised to see them (more than one) in a house, but realised that the owners didn't have a dining table.

Sorry, that was in reply to ravenmum about the couch potato aspect - yes, instant marker and noticeable!

A= 100% in the wrong

If person A keeps getting up, they should be the one sitting nearer the door, because in addition to being unable to remember to be careful about B's drink they keep walking between B and the TV. And thats annoying. B should be allowed to hunker down with their drink on the windowsill and be out of the way. After that, i bet A learns to not knock over their own drink quite quickly.
