I need some ideas. How do you start an argument with someone who avoids arguing? How can you really piss someone off and make it not seem intentional?


-Drum on every available surface.
-Specify that your drive-through order is "to go".
-Shake with your left hand
-Adjust the tint on your tv so that all the people are green, and insist to others that you "like it that way".
-Change channels five minutes before the end of every show.
-Decline to be seated at a restaurant, and simply eat their complementary mints by the cash register.
-Pay for your dinner with pennies.
-Lie obviously about trivial things such as the time of day.
-Reply to everything someone says with "that's what YOU think."
-When giving directions, leave out a turn or two
-Knock and ask "How is it going?" to someone constipated in a public bathroom stall.
-Announce when you're going to the bathroom
-Tell people they have bad breath


EVEN BETTER...
-Ask him/her to do you a favor and get you a drink, then when they bring it, slowly pour it on the floor.
-Clip your toenails while watching a movie or eating dinner.
-Walk and talk backwards.
-Spend all your money on Jolt Cola. Drink it all. Stack the cans in the middle of your room. Number them.
-Buy as many back issues of Field and Stream as you can. Pretend to masturbate while reading them.
-Smile. All the time.
-Collect dog shit in baby food jars. Sort them according to what you think the dog ate.
-Array thirteen toothbrushes of different colors on your dresser. Refuse to discuss them.
-Always flush the toilet three times.

If all else fails:
Leave a declaration of war on their desk. Include a list of grievances.

Thorn, that's some funny stuff.

OP, why would you want to start an argument with someone. Is this some kind of game playing bullshit that many couples engage in?

If you like the person either don't worry about it or communicate like a reasonable person. If you don't like them then either don't worry about it or kick there ass or attempt to humiliate them somehow.

one phrase seems to work: comedy gold - especially when they are not trying to be funny :D

Because you're undeniably attracted to me.


It must be the hat, Chance.

Tell me you like my hat, Shannon.
You're not wearing a hat.
Tell me you like my hat! Why can't you tell me you like my hat?

Cue Enya.

Even worse is when someone asks you for something that demands you give a detailed explanation and then they immediately follow up your explanation with a simple phrase that shows they don't care and are completely wasting your time.

Example from my life:

Old woman to me when going somewhere: Excuse me, do you know how to get to Jefferson?

Me: (pauses to give very detailed explanation. Halfway through, her eyes glaze over.)

Old woman (immediately when I finish): Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?

>_<


I would have spun my head around in a 360 and spit pea soup at her, then gave her the wrong directions
