Let’s face it: even the people we love the most in the whole world get on our nerves sometimes.
It starts with our parents, moves on with our siblings and continues with our friends as we get older. Usually, the fights we have with the people we love are not particularly significant—maybe they always bite their nails or they always show up late. There may be no stereotype more enduring than the couple who argues and argues over the tiniest things. As it turns out, though, there may be more truth to that image than we’d like to admit—no matter how strong the couple is.
The topic was discussed on Twitter under the hashtag #StupidThingsCouplesFightAbout. Here are 20 of the funniest (and pettiest) examples.
1. There’s always the classic struggle over who’s really in charge.
Communication is king, people.
2. Watching TV together is a sacred bond.
Resist the temptation—no matter how much that new episode of The Bachelor is calling your name.
3. This one is a personal favorite.
Anyone who does the second one here is a monster, plain and simple.
4. This one is also pretty relevant.
It’s not hard to do so why does no one ever want to do it?
5. This one is pretty meta.
Fighting about fighting is how you know you’ve reached pro couple status.
6. This one is also a classic.
Contrary to popular belief, Netflix is actually just a service for looking at movies and TV shows rather than watching them.
7. This one is just plain unfair.
Raise your hand if your significant other has ever shamed you for cheating on them in a dream (that’s everybody).
8. Getting on the same page with this one is tricky.
Related to this: shower temperature.
9. A little forethought can be helpful in these situations.
Or you two can always play nose goes to see who has to do it.
10. With so many options, why is this always so hard?
Never underestimate how much tension this one can cause—especially because it comes up all the time.
11. This is the toilet paper situation all over again.
Again, this is really easy to do…
12. Does everything have to be a competition?
According to tweets like this, apparently yes.
13. Who knew technology would play such an important role in our relationships?
Patience is a virtue, people.
14. All it takes is twisting one knob.
Then again, are people really taking full baths in the morning?
15. There are many different kinds of “fine.”
Please just tell us what you need, ladies. We live to serve.
16. Now this one can get serious.
17. When will we learn that there’s enough puppy love to go around?
Even worse is when your significant other seems to love the dog more than they love you!
18. One hundred percent disagree with this tweet.
To each their own, I guess.
19. Social media is a minefield.
Be careful out there with your swipes and likes, everyone.
20. Never do this.
But they looked so delicious…
