What's the funniest argument between a couple you have ever seen?

I have two incidents that come to mind.

The first one I witnessed from a car when stopped at a light. A man and woman were standing across the street and she was yelling at him and had her face about 2 inches from his. He said nothing and after I had been watching for about 15 seconds he spat on her face. This made her totally flip and she started yelling twice as loudly as before. Everyone around had seen and tried to look the other way while. It was very hard not to laugh. Fortunately the light turned green and the car I was in drove away.


The second incident took place as a friend of mine, his younger brother Dan, and I were leaving circuit city. A mustang pulled into the parking lot and we could hear yelling as they came into the lot. The car stopped about 50 feet from us and the driver said "Get the hell out of my car." My friend's brother cracked under his breath "That's right. You gotta kick that bitch to the curb." The problem was that as she was getting out of the car she had heard his comment. My friend and I told Dan that he should be more careful as this woman made a bee-line for him and started getting in his face. The boyfriend, who up to this point had looked extremely unhappy, smiled broadly as he watched this unfold. Dan was able to apologize adequately enough to the woman to avoid any further wrath, and we all went on our merry way.

Any of you have funny stories about what happens when people's emotional cups run over?

One time my dad and I were going into Borders to get us some books.

An older looking couple (50-ish) were arguing over The Lord of the RIngs. One was saying something about one kind of elf, one was arguing another.

Then, in the middle of this all, they started kickboxing in the parking lot! All the while, they were shouting things like "Plus one defense!" and "I cast the Iron Mage Spell!"

My dad and I just looked at each other and said: "Nerds"

Whoa, that's too strange for words!

yelling about how I was 'Hoarding Mana'

that that's going to be me in 35-40 years...

It was senior year, and somehow I wound up in a shouting match with another student over the circumstances surrounding Darth Vader's redemption. I told him it was unmerited and perverse ("the guy should be rotting in Jedi Hell"), while he defended it from a Christian perspective. Ten minutes later, we started venting about our own fathers.

The most surreal conversation I've ever had.

while riding the commuter rail. Kind of funny how I learned all their...ummm...personal problems but I couldn't figure out how he could afford a Nextel when he had just gotten out of prison a couple months early and was unemployed. I'm guessing one of his girlfriends had been paying for it.

Right in the middle of a supermarket. He says "You don't use baking powder to make chocolate chip cookies..you use baking SODA!" She says,"It's baking powder,you idiot!" He says "What did you call me???" etc etc,until finally she throws a box of baking soda and hits him in the head,then he throws a bag of flour and she throws something else and they are just throwing everything in the baking aisle at each other...it was a mess! Entertaining though it was,I left before seeing the final outcome.

Almost getting into a fist fight over whether it mattered that you planted certain plants during the dark of the moon.

and there were many....

(i was afraid you were going to bring up my wife and me about our toilet seat - thanks :hug:)
