Un-necessary arguments
Obviously we all argue about everything on here but what other arguments have you ended up having about nothing?
I was in a pharmacy yesterday and was getting grief for having taken Co-Codamol for longer than three days as it can cause "addiction". Quite why I could be addicted to pills that don't fucking do anything is beyond me.

Getting annoyed at the suggestion that you might be addicted
Could well be an early indication that you are addicted, sporto.
The sooner you can admit to having a problem, the sooner you'll be able to start dealing with it.

I actually told the mrs off when we were in Australia for continually saying "Can I get" instead of "Could I have"
I always think "Can I get" sounds really rude. And the mrs is always banging on about me not saying please. But that annoys me, because if you ask someone politely for something (e.g. Mrs al? Could you possibly pass me that screwdriver as I'm stuck up a ladder?") then you say thanks afterwards then to me that's fine without the please, and being badgered to say please when you're standing on a fucking ladder trying to stop the light fitting falling down is really irritating.
