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

In fifth grade with my friend over who is more mature. He has ADHD so he tends to act immature (not saying that’s what ADHD does he just gets hyper and acts immature sometimes) and I would keep bugging him saying I’m more mature. We eventually realized how dumb this was and stopped. And I realized how much I liked him especially with his quirks! Caring and fun like Pikachu!

In a trance of stupidity, I argued with my Korean friend over how to pronounce Seoul 😳 (Of course she knocked me out of said trance on the spot 😂)

Arguing with someone who believes everything is a conspiracy or a false flag.

Whether exploring space is a good idea and a good use of our Earthly resources. Blows my mind so many believe we should go extinct on this husk of a planet rather than save ourselves and as many other species from Earth as we can. But then trying to explain tipping points, and the escape velocity of a species vs sustainment of a massive population in a finite bubble... Oops, sorry, the one egg inside the one basket just cracked and it's too late now Pikachu!... Just don't look up!!!

If asexuality is a phase. For context, my neighbors are homophobic and as per my username, I’m ace. They somehow found out and while I was helping them with their garden they went on this lecture that asexuality is a phase and that I’ll get over myself when I find a nice man. I argued with them for almost 3 years about this until my family moved, but now that I’m thinking about it, it was a waste of time anyway. They will always be homophobic, no matter how hard I try or how nicely I explain to them the concept of asexuality.

My cousin and his roommate were arguing over who moved a toothbrush to a different spot on the bathroom sink. It nearly came to blows, and we had separate the two. I suspect that there were some deeper, unresolved issues playing through this silly argument.

Many with my father, he seems to take the opposite stance always. In one argument i
I sarcastically said that is as stupid as the flat earth theory and he stared at me for a moment and said "but the earth is flat". I just gave up then and there. Pika pika

Pikachu. One of the most useless arguments I had was with my family. We were debating on if we came from monkeys. It got pretty heated. (Btw, we came from a common ancestor and it evolved into different species. http://humanorigins.si.edu/education/frequently-asked-questions)

Not sure if this counts, but it's the only one I can think of.

Last fall while I was out for a walk, I decided to stop in at this family own/run convenience store to buy a pack of cigarettes. I'd been in the store before, but only once in a blue moon.

When it was my turn at the counter, I asked for the pack I wanted and the guy looked like he was sizing me up. Then he says, "Are you a cop?" I just kinda blinked and said, "No, not a cop. Why do you ask?" He replies, "I've never seen you in here before, you look like a cop."

For reference, I was wearing an old ratty sweater with sweat pants and sneakers. Hair in a ponytail, no makeup, etc.

He kept going on and on about how I had to be a cop because I was "new to him" in the store and that all of their tobacco taxes had been paid, he could show me the paperwork, etc. Needless to say, a line started to form behind me and everyone was listening in.

I had no idea what to do! I just kept saying, "I'm not a cop! I'm just here to buy a pack of smokes!"

I did manage to buy a pack and get out of there, but I still don't think the guy believed me for whatever reason.

Whether Janga Fett was a Mandalorian. Same with Boba Fett.
