My ex-girlfriend worked at a restaurant and they had an annual staff party which was just a house party at the manager’s house. When we opened the door and started taking our shoes off one of the new server girls was shouting at the manager “Don’t call me Lonestar!” and he was like “Yeah whatever Lonestar” and she screamed at the top of her lungs “DON’T CALL ME FUCKING LONESTAR!!!” and shoved him hard, he fell backwards and landed on his ass and she screamed a battle cry and started punching holes in the drywall, busting up her knuckles and bleeding everywhere. We put our shoes back on and just left. She got fired
That’s… Not really a couple dispute, is it? Still, pretty funny lol
He had the hots for her but I guess that doesn’t really count
She should’ve just given him the raspberry.
What’s up with the calling Lonestar?
Now you see that evil will always triumph, because good is dumb.
I imagine she formerly worked at a Lonestar Steakhouse. That or she had some affiliation with Texas. Being that these were restaurant folk, I’m leaning toward the first.
East coast Canadian girl who had never left Nova Scotia.
Spaceballs reference maybe?
Just completely random
My ex-spouse accused me of cheating on him.
…with a character in the video game.
…because I “clearly love him more that you love me!”
Whenever he’d be upset (for whatever reason), he would snap and say “Why don’t you go talk to the person you actually love??” before giving me the silent treatment until he needed something.
It was the beginning of the end.
Don’t miss it lol
EDIT: oh fuck, I forgot… he actually sold our PS4 containing the game/save file completely out of the blue a few months after his first accusation, without telling me first. The game in question was “Stardew Valley”. He was a shitty little man.
What I’m reading is he was right on the money about the pixel character being a more appealing love interest.
Wet moldy socks were a more appealing love interest.
Was it the poet who lives on the beach? That was the only one I’d have been threatened by
Lol nah it was the alcoholic. Ironically enough, the two of them were the most alike!
At least Shane grows a little.
Lol, my girlfriend says she always marries Sebastian because he reminds her of me. I hope that’s a good thing. She wants me to play but I struggle getting into top-down games 😕
Told the gf about this, she needs to know which character it was.
Shane, of course! Who tf gets jealous over Shane??
I bet he was short and sensitive about it lol
Whether apple stems are perpendicular or parallel to the surface of the fruit.
Considering that it was about topology, that might very well be the smartest couple’s dispute I’ve ever heard of.
Incidental Tangent to the surface where the stem starts.
approximately
At the deepest part where it surrounds stem tightly there will be an instant tangent which then immediately becomes non tangent. A G0 and G1 condition and not G2
The surface does not become a perfect cylindrical section in nature, nor is the stem itself cylindrical.
Doesn’t matter, the point where stem and dimple are deepest and encapsulated would have same vector direction initially. Topology doesn’t need to be cylindrical to have vectors
I don’t have a dog in the race. I just think you are two big dorks and I love this discussion. I want at least a 20 minute YouTube video of the correct answer and why the other is wrong!
Well you are in luck. No video but images of analysis. Hedgehog plot of normal vectors, they converge to flat at stem base. Hard to see since the stem/dimple share space.
Confirmation of immediate angle at stem base
Slope plot. Green being 0 degrees from up vector.
Dimple hole showing its not a cylindrical stem
Stem slope, green being immediate 0 vector
I’m on a trip so won’t have access to my CAD analysis tools, so no video I’m afraid.
Is the answer not both? Depending on what part of the stem?
Now, that’s an interesting discussion!
No thats totally fair argument.
We disagreed for years about the color of our couch. I called it brown. He called it blue. It was a weird grayish brown colored couch, but because it was labeled “slate” when he bought it, he insisted it was blue. We then added a teal blue couch to our house which just solidified my “this is the brown couch” position. We do not, to this day, agree. Eventually we got rid of the couch.
When you say you got rid of it, is it for sale? I’m in the market for a blue couch
Do you still have the picture? We’d love to see.
This is the couch up against our old mantle with painted brown bricks (we didn’t do that, we were renting)
Hi, after seeing the couch I just want to say I’m not interested in purchasing it any more. I’m looking for a blue couch and that one is clearly brown. Thanks.
That looks like a reddish brown, but it’s impossible to tell with 100% certainty unless you use a high-end HDR camera to take another pic (and find a way to share the RAW image file cause I don’t know if any browser that supports deep color images). But as far as the s.RGB color space is concerned, there’s no blue in that image.
Edit: Pulled the hex values from part of the couch; it is in fact reddish-brown (#3A2F2E), although some might argue that it’s reddish-grey.
Vote for brown.
There’s nothing blue on that…
Brown

They had a whole stupid argument about… Cheese. It went from small arguing to actual conflict.
Look, cheese is serious eats. And business.
And atrocity against vulnerable individuals.
One time I was at a specialty beer and cheese shop and I saw this guy pushing a cart alone with two children. He generally looked beaten down and glum. The kids are rambunctious, he’s exhausted, wife is missing but obviously in the store with them.
He is browsing the cases, killing time waiting for his wife to come back. He grabs a small block of cheese, looks interested it and adds it to the cart.
A few minutes later, the wife returns and immediately spots the cheese block. She picks it up and screams “$10? For a block of cheese you haven’t even TRIED yet? Absolutely not.”
Then she hurled it back in the case and stomped off while he sullenly followed her with the cart and kids
I attacked my wife on the Game of Thrones board game while she was at 6 castles and I was at 4.
How dare you, that’s a relationship ender right there
I just decided not to play games that cutthroat with mine
Hard water vs soft water.
So many times we’ve been in a hotel room and I’ve taken a shower and commented on what soft water it is because it feels like the soap never rinses off and I feel slippery all over. She always tries to correct me by calling it hard water. She grew up in a desert city that has naturally hard water, so she’ll always say, “I know what hard water is, I grew up with hard water!” when the “hard” water she grew up with was softened by some means. It doesn’t matter how many articles and blog posts and ChatGPT sessions on the topic I show her, she always insists they’re wrong and she’s right. We argued about it a few times in the past, but now it’s a running joke between us.
Oh man do I hate soft water. Granted soap doesn’t lather as well with hard water but whenever I shower someplace with soft water I feel like I’m spending 20 minutes just trying to get the soap off. Also I hate drinking softwater
Just had this discussion/argument with my mom last week!
Okay, so the water in hotels that sucks at getting soap off (it doesn’t really, but it feels like it does) is softened water. It has been treated to remove calcium, magnesium, and other cations, to prevent scale buildup.
As I understand it skin feels slippery like it hasn’t removed the soap for potentially a few reasons. General consensus is that either you’re feeling whatever salt they put in the water to treat it, or you’re feeling the lack of those minerals. That is, you’re use to the water making your skin feel less slippery because of the various minerals in it, so the absence of those minerals makes it feel slippery. You get used to this eventually, but it’s annoying if you aren’t used to softened water.
The confusion comes in because in home water systems, you really only need a water softener if the water in the area is particularly hard. So it’s easy to associate softened water with hard water. Because you don’t really need to soften water that isn’t high in mineral deposits (unless you’re a hotel trying to minimize cleaning costs and are treating a fuckload of water centrally).
So you’re both right. It’s soft water because it’s been softened. And it’s been softened because it’s hard water. 😂
It has become an ongoing issue that my wife complains that she smells something, then gets angry at me if I am unable to smell that same smell, sometimes accusing me of gas lighting her or calling her a liar, when actually I just don’t smell the smell she’s smelling.
I’m not making implications or accusations, I’m not trying to mislead or confuse her, I just can’t smell whatever she’s smelling and that fact frustrates the heck out of her as though I’m personally letting her down. Then she gets a bit aggro and I have to change the garbages / kitchen compost in the hopes that perhaps those are the sources of the smells I can’t smell. Sometimes that helps. She will never change the garbage or take out the compost herself.
When she insisted that she smelled a gas leak from our furnace that I couldn’t smell, we called a professional who confirmed our furnace was working fine and there was no gas leak; but I was still the villain for denying the gas leak ahead of time. Three times in the last 6 months this has been a thing.
My wife also has a better sense of smell then me. We don’t fight about it but I have spent a bunch of time trying to find the phantom smell.
She’s pregnant now and her super smell is even more potent. So I had to do a lot of kitchen cleaning and I had to a lot of cooking. It’s a thing for sure
Flip the script, say she’s gaslighting you by pretending to smell things that aren’t there.
(Don’t actually do this unless you really hate your relationship.)
My wife’s siblings and her all have the same weird trait: when things get stressful, they clam up and do this “shut up and let me save the world” thing. Her sister’s worked on it a lot because #fireman, but it’s a strong compulsion.
The “hmm, maybe if you’d talked to anyone instead of going missing-person” is extra fun when it’s a tech thing, as after the stress and the teeth-pulling contextual questions, it’s two mouse clicks and an object lesson.
And, when THAT fight’s over…

The dumb part of any dispute I’ve had with my wife is thinking I could win.
