Tiny salad dressing sized Tupperware will be the cause of my divorce.
Because he leaves them for days, with salad dressing still in them for days in his lunch box? And then throws them in the sink? Still sealed & unrinsed? So they stink to high heaven when they actually get rinsed? By someone that is not him?
This thread is cracking me up because at 1st I was all "oh gosh, I can't remember any silly fights!" and then I realized I was wrong because I can relate to nearly every post in here LOL

No? Just me?
LOL, almost. I find it so frustrating that I/he/we have to hand wash them. He doesn't use them for on-the-go salad dressing. He uses them for a few pieces of chocolate or some nuts while at home. BUT we have a cabinet full of small glass bowls that I could just throw in the dishwasher. WHY DO YOU NOT USE THE GLASS BOWLS?!
One of our biggest fights was when we were wrapping rope around a lally column/support pole in our family room. We had a giant spool of rope and wanted to wrap the whole pole bottom to top with no seams/cuts in the rope. I told him he needed to hold the spool and walk around the pole, unwinding, as I glued. He thought he could just stand in one spot and pull rope off the spool from there. OMG. No matter how tangled and twisted the rope got, he still REFUSED to WALK AROUND THE GODDAMN POLE. Acted like it was the stupidest idea EVER.
When dating, my now husband and I got in a huge fight about who was better for Buffy: Spike or Angel. I was team Spike (since he had gone out of his way to get his soul just for Buffy), and DH was team Angel because of their history. I was like what, their history of him turning evil and then bouncing out of town??? And he was like, um, Spike made a Buffy-Bot to bang whenever he wanted.
This fight lasted a long time. It still might be ongoing, now that I think about it.
Team Angel. He's way hotter. And the Buffy Bot was really creepy. And he couldn't help losing his sole! And he left because he LOVES her!
WRONG WRONG WRONG. I'll agree the Buffy Bot was creepy, and no, Angel couldn't help losing his soul. But he didn't try to get it back for Buffy. He was happy to be bad again. He killed Giles' girlfriend and posed her body all creepy! He killed Willow's fish! He was gleeful and sadistic despite his "love" for Buffy that literally disappeared overnight. Spike was all bad and evil, but then got better for Buffy. Plus he's hotter. And funnier. He has some of the all time best lines of the show.

People actually open chocolate wrappers, PUT IT IN A TUPPERWARE, and then sit down to eat it? NO. Who has that type of restraint?
It's like the giant bars of super dark chocolate. So yeah, he (and I do this too) break off a row, put it in a container and eat it.
We've been married almost 10 years and we still fight over putting the toilet seat down. If he needs to lift the seat up....HE should put it back down. He never puts the seat down and even my mom has complained.

Wow. I am really impressed by your patience and will power! I...have none. lol
I don't know that there's anything to impressed by. It's 80% +. There's no way I could eat the whole thing in one sitting. I mean, I guess I could. But I would feel really sick.

One day I picked up pizza for us. He asked for extra sauce. I told them extra but they didn't put it on it and he said he couldn't eat it and threw a tantrum. That was like 12 years ago but to this day I make him order and pick up pizza.
We also got in a huuuuge fight in target over Christmas tree lights. He wanted colored, I wanted white. Now we have a prelit tree that goes between colored and white with a switch of a button. Problem solved! We alternate days.
We have an ongoing fight about where to store our emergency supplies. I think they should be in the laundry room, which is small but has enough room for us to sleep, has a toilet and running water, and would be easier to seal off in the event we need to shelter in place. He thinks they should be in the adjacent large unfinished storage room, and we can just kick through the wall if we need to use the toilet.
LOL, kicking through the wall is better than being in a room with a running water?

LOL, my H and I got into a screaming match last year over fried rice. He kept asking me what kind of rice it was made of and I was like, uh, white? And he kept insisting fried rice was it's own kind of rice, much like white, brown, wild, etc. I was so fucking confused and made fun of him for not knowing (prob a bitch move on my part) and he got pissy and yelled, "WHO THE FUCK KNOWS THAT FRIED RICE IS MADE FROM WHITE RICE?? IT'S NOT DUMB!"
So I posted a poll on Facebook asking people what kind of rice is used for fried rice and he got pisssssssed.
(FTR, everyone answered, "duh, white rice, who doesn't know that).
Team Angel. He's way hotter. And the Buffy Bot was really creepy. And he couldn't help losing his sole! And he left because he LOVES her!

#spikeisawsome Angel sucks, though David Boreanaz is hot. Spike changed for Buffy and is also hot. Angel thought he just knew better.
We fight over how NOT to use Kitchen towels ALLTHEFUCKINGTIME.
Me: If you plan to reuse and hang, kitchen towels are to dry your hands or wipe down a WET but CLEAN counter.
Him: Kitchen towels clean up everything...milk spills, crumbs and then can STILL be used to dry off clean dishes.
Nothing like a nasty milk towel to clean your clean dishes eh?
He STILL DOES IT and it drives me insane!!!!
Can I tell you about the fight one day that we had when I saw him take our hand towel down from the bathroom, wipe up the water and shaving cream that he splashed all over the bathroom counter, than wipe his face with it and hang it back up? I was like, I WIPE MY CLEAN HANDS ON THAT, YOU BARBARIAN.

In a Japanese Department Store, we couldn't find each other and started cussing each other via text When we saw each other face to face we argued but very quietly because everyone in Japan was so polite we didn't want to raise our voices.

We're supposed to hand wash them?
These ones are those super cheap flimsy ones that will melt in the dishwasher.
I didn't know my complaint would be so controversial
He comes home and one of the first things he does is he grabs a stack of at least 20 towels and places the stack on the counter. I get so angry. How hard is it to walk 10 steps to the closet and grab a new one if you need it? Then he uses a new towel every time even the tiniest crumb drops. I literally end up with a sink full of wet kitchen towels every day when he's home.
yeah...I would kill him. And then bury him with all of those wet kitchen towels.

SO and I had a really ugly fight a little over a month ago because on his message board, someone was recommending random colognes for the guys to try, and I guess this particular poster is well-known for being good at perf. Fine. But with absolutely no backstory, he texts me a link to Sephora with the caption "I want to try Fat Electrican."
Not realizing he was serious, I start goofing on what I think fat electrician would smell like. He got really angry with me for making fun of it without knowing what it was, and it went downhill from there.
I still maintain that I was right, and that texting anyone out of the blue saying that you're interested in smelling like a fat electrician is guaranteed to elicit a laugh.
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."

He doesn't understand why it's so irritating. And we argue about it every month, lol. I told him I'm willing to forgive his paper towel usage, and I even installed a stupid paper towel holder under the sink, just don't touch my nice kitchen towels! But no. He needs a one month supply of towels sitting on the counter.

The worst was the table manners fight about napkin placement where I became a snotty elitist bitch and he was a slobby neanderthal and it was a public whisper fight where I cried. I think I had a couple G&Ts prior.
When I was first married my husband asked me to pass him the cheese. I had just bought a lb of American cheese. I HUCKED it at him. I don't know why I threw it so hard. he looked up and BAM it hit him in the face hard. He was convinced that I did it on purpose and he stormed out angry. He was mad for weeks.

I'm not sure what would irritate me more, him leaving wet towels in the sink or him ignoring my requests to respect my kitchen etiquette boundaries.
I think I would disappear the kitchen towels for a while until he was retrained to use the paper towels. The more I think about mounds of wet towels in the sink...
I can't think of many. DH is easygoing and laid back. He doesn't take a stand on many things.
When we first moved in together I spent all day cleaning the apartment and then he got home and changed and threw his clothes on the floor. I was IRATE and he kept saying "they are just pants though..."
He knows not to eat my food or share my food. Or look at my food. And he knows that Pepsi is unacceptable.
Oh yeah, food, lol. He's really weird about processed food, or like, cream of crap casseroles. One time we had a blowout fight because I was going to serve green bean casserole at Christmas dinner. Don't eat it, then! Something with such an easy solution is just too hard for him to comprehend. And, surprise! Everyone loved it, even him.
FTR I love cream of crap stuff. But on easter a few years ago I sent him to the store to buy ham and he came home with a CANNED ham CANNED. I was like "Um wtf is this" and he said that is what his mom made. I was like UM HELL NO.
