32 Hilariously Stupid Arguments People Have Been In

Nothing can inject some spice into an otherwise boring day than an incredibly stupid argument — especially the kind that seems to crop up in close friendships. You can practically feel the temperature rising, as soon as it becomes clear that there’s a base disagreement on something that’s either fully incorrect or largely useless.

What you witness next is two human brains, balls of logic and emotion, lighting up like Christmas trees in a fruitless fight to exhaustion. It’s a beautiful exhibition of every level of consciousness and feeling that makes humans human, all because someone said a movie about just Yoda wouldn’t be any good. 

Though you may not have witnessed them in person, read on for some of the best incredibly stupid arguments Redditors had to offer.

xSMUFFINX . 10y ago My junior year of high school | got into a very heated debate with my friend over whether Cheetos were considered chips. After half an hour of yelling about this he finally called frito- lay headquarters to ask their opinion on the matter. I was right, they're not chips:)
tqhp1 - 10y ago Edited 10y ago I once got into an argument with my college roommate about whether Aladdin should be angry when Jasmine kissed Jafar to distract him at the end of the movie. We were two college aged men yelling at each other in the middle of a bar. For some reason it just go so heated. It only ended when my friend left the bar. I'm still mad thinking about it.
wasitabarorabatisaw 10y ago A bunch of us were watching the movie Highlander in college. There's a line where a lady compares an ancient sword to finding a 747 jet that was built 1000 years before the Wright brothers invented the airplane. One guy insisted that it was possible. Не asked How do you know that there isn't a 747 jet buried somewhere. No matter what argument we presented, he just replied How do you know?
oddcharm 10y ago TL;DR: Whether sandals are considered shoes. My one roommate decided to have a house party for her coworkers. I had no issues, I had met a few and they were cool. The party starts and everything is fine until, one of her male coworkers just happened to be wearing my flip flops. I was taken aback. I mean, who just puts on someone else's shoes? Anyway, I tell him to take off my shoes. Не had no reaction to what I said so I told him again. Same thing. This smart ass decides to tell me that
pcspain 10y ago Not me, but when my daughter and her friend were in 3rd grade my daughter came running into the house crying and bleeding on her neck and chest. Apparently she and her friend had just come to blows (scratches) over how big the friend's imaginary friend was. Not even kidding.
beepsyboo 10y ago A couple months ago, I bought a candle from Trader Joes on a whim. I saw it in the aisle, I put it in my cart, end of story... or so I thought. It turns out this particular candle is scentless, which means its purpose is not smell-related, but rather more of an aesthetic one. I thought this to be just fine. However, my roommate, with whom I normally agree on just about everything, LAUGHED in my face at the idea of a scentless candle. What was its point? he asked. I told him. I told him

Advocate_Diplomacy 10y ago I once spent almost an entire class trying to explain the Bob's mom has three kids. April, May, and who? riddle to a girl that sat next to me.

SteveBonus 10y ago I was involved in this argument, but only as collateral. Two guys were arguing whether dogs have souls, and I was the only other person in the room just listening to them passionately defend their views. At one point as the debate got pretty heated the guy that believed that yes, dogs have souls, asked me in an exasperated tone You believe dogs have souls right?! to which I replied I don't even believe humans have souls. That somehow both ended the argument and didn't turn it against me.

No agreement whatsoever was ever reached.
Pickle_Ops 10y ago Recently a group of friends and | got in an argument over the proper way to wipe your ass. Not just the old standing VS sitting argument, but specific wiping techniques, correct toilet paper density, the whole nine yards. That argument became so heated that we practically needed a UN sanction to keep everyone from killing each other. One friend was so certain his method was the best he nearly gave us a demonstration.
tehorhay G 10y ago Edited 10y ago The difference between a windshield and a window. The one in the front is a windsheild, the one in the back is a window. There is only one windshield on a car. The rest are windows. This one has come to blows
