Hey Pandas, What Is The Most Useless Argument You Have Ever Had? (Closed)

arguing with someone on social media (flat earthers, antivaxers, etc). waste of time.

Should you peel a banana upside down or not

Who's argument is the dumbest on here

I have been to art school, studied graphic design and graphic technologies. Color theory was a required class, so I know what I’m talking about. I had several arguments with my exhusband as to what white to buy to paint the trim inside the house. To me, being told to just go buy white paint is as stupid as telling someone to just buy yellow to paint Pikachu.

Pikachu lol, but seriously, I had an argument over who should breathe. We kept telling the other to breathe and we kept doing no u to the other.

I’ve tried for years to get my dad to see that racism is wrong.
No joy.

pikachu, um someone tried to argue with me on how I'm supposed to pronounce my own name

Someone tried to argue with me that i was not English ( I was born in England but half Jamaican half Mauritian) cause drumroll please…… I’m black!!

I was told that I boiled my noodles wrong. ( was told to put noodles in water and wait to boil, I boil the water than put noodles in)

Religion. It's pointless. And has started too many wars.

Trying to explain that Trans people are not things. They are still people.

The concepts of monetary inflation and modern monetary theory, and the cause and effects of inflation. How can so many believe that if the government just gave everyone $1 million dollars we all could afford to eat then, and buy a house, and everything will be ok... Just pains me. Especially after seeing the covid money just given to everyone w***y nilly. Basically IMO just proved that UBI, isn't a long term solution (inflation will make the UBI worthless in no time at all), and that we really need to keep searching for cheaper, more efficient ways to make food (etc) if we are to aim for less starvation and more equality. Point the money where it matters, not splatter shooting it all over, is most likely to have the best results. The argument is useless though since so many people think money will fix their problems, in the middle-to-long-run it will not. The solutions will not come from governments directly, but instead it will come from capitalists and scientists. At least if history has anything to say about the future.

Any argument with my brothers
Our arguments devolve into way past stupid way too much

I once had an argument (with my sister) about how she couldn’t say get out to me in the hallway that we shared. Soon after she changed the topic of the argument because she realized she was wrong about that. I also had an argument once with a friend when I was in grade school about whether my beads that I was using for my (successful mind you) earring selling business in school were actual gems. My mom was a jeweler so they were legit but she had a competing earring selling business against me that wasn’t as successful. We are good friends now. And that is past us. (Pikachu)

Inner conflict whether I should answer this post or not (pikachu)

PIKACHU RULES!!
My ex boyfriend got into an argument about the fact that we never argue.
Thus the 'ex'!

In retrospect, every one having about actual politics IRL or online. But till your 40's you tend to think, you can make a difference in the matter. And that's very all right, in this way!

Got in an argument with someone who thinks that humans existed with dinosaurs WTF

Trying to convince my narcissistic mother over the sensibility of my career choice at 17 years old, knowing full well she didn't had a problem with the career itself, she had a problem with me. Whatever choice I made had to be wrong and she would always force me to do the opposite of what I wanted just to have power and control over me. I thought I could at least reason with her. She responded with a week of silent treatment (a week of pure blessing for me) followed by a huge tantrum. Then she turned around and acted like she had always supported my choice. I didn't care anymore, I was just glad I got my way.

Trying to correct someone trying to mansplain my bra size to me, he was certain that I, an owner of breasts did not know my own bra size. It ended with me buying one in the size he was certain I should be wearing to prove him wrong.
