Stupid arguments.

Would I be unreasonable to ask you all about the most ridiculous argument you and your partner have had? Here is mine...

Boyfriend: "Oh I see you're drinking your favourite pop again. Perhaps you should drink more water instead."

Me: "No, I seem to pee so much more if I drink plain water compared to drinks like hemp milk or green tea for example."

Boyfriend: looks at me funny "What is the main ingredient in your pop?"

Me: "Water."

Boyfriend: "Exactly! Drinks are made with mostly water."

Me: Looks at bottle ingredients "The lable doesn't specify how much water is in my pop. It could be more fruit juice than water. How are you to know? I mean you can clearly see it is more orange than anything else."

Boyfriend: shakes his head at me in disbelief and chuckles away to himself

Me: "See! You cannot tell me. Why say that if you cannot answer the question?"

Boyfriend: unable to speak now due to full on laughing

Me: "Keep laughing all you want, Mr. Brainiac."

To be fair I barely slept the night before and my head was away with the fairies. I'm normally pretty logical and quite intelligent. ☺

Are you drinking council pop?

Also YABU, even if your drink was mostly fruit juice, that is mostly water.

I leave DH to hang pictures now. The only screaming rows we've ever had, ever, have been over the height at which to hang pictures.

It's clearly a family fault trait SIL's husband tells me she hangs theirs too low as well

@Ilikethisone that may have been one of my statements Grin
