We had an argument about what exactly a kumquat is. It eventually degraded into punching eagles in the face.

My dad and I argue over global warming all the time. He says he just doesn't believe it and yet he knows absolutely shit about thermal physics.

Also, every time I've argued over something without really thinking about it just because I have some stupid need to be the one who's "right."
I'm much better about it these days but I still catch myself doing it. I won't reveal the escapist member who it happened with but I just had the dumbest argument over definition of game development for no reason with someone when I'm not a game developer and I'm fairly confident they aren't either. Why do I do this? It's just silly. I can be a real ass sometimes

(It's "TEER-ee-on" and "JAYM", right? My stupid friends think it's "TY-ron" and "JAY-mee".)
Jaime is pronounced "Hi-me".

Whether pizza was invented in Italy or America. I can't believe I have to actually argue this with someone either...
That depends on what you mean by invent. I believe the greeks actually started it, but romans adopted it. In modern form Italy had the pizza margherita which is the basis of what we think of as pizza, but Chicago and New York adapted it to personal tastes.

An argument with my brother. It lasted almost an hour.
...
It was over who would win: Robots or Dinosaurs. He got way too into it.

I Find no argument to be trivial AND pointless... trivial sometimes but never pointless. Usually when an argument is at it's end someone learns something

i do so believe this to be a trivial and QUITE POSSIBLY pointless argument and ... wait... do internet arguments count? i cause i got into a fight with a squareenix fanboy on here before. [but i do so believe you have thoroughly owned that guy]

Try me *does cliche karate movie hand closing to indicate that you should bring it on, and damn this is a long movement/gesture*.
Yeah, I'm sure that I've had a more trivial arguement then you've had. I had this one not that long ago that was so pointless, I'm not even going to talk about it. It's that trivial.

My friend and I once argued for about 15 to 20 minutes with 2 other friends who were convinced that dead sloths falling from trees was a serious threat while traversing through a forest. We conceded that it would be frightening to see a sloth carcass land near you, or deadly to have it land on you, but there is just such a low probability of it happening. It's also pointless considering the many living animals that are much more likely to kill you. Good story though.

But how could I possibly believe you have had arguments more pointless than any I have had if you won't provide me with any evidence?

You have a 12 hour analogue clock (probably watch is a better example) and it only goes up to 12.00 not a 24 hour clock. So at 12.00 mid day (on the dot) would it be am or pm? And 12.00 at midnight would this be am or pm?

I don't think we ever came to an answer for that. If anyone knows could you answer it.
Midnight is 12am, noon is 12pm. Think of it this way, a half hour after noon, is it 12:30 am or pm?

"HI-may" actually.

Oh believe me, it's pretty trivial. Somewhat Ironic too, come to think of it.

I argued with my friend about how Kasumi does not hit people with her omni-tool because an omni-tool is a holigraphic interface, If she did hit them with it, it would be reinforced with a kinetic barrier or something.

A few years ago me and a friend were having a debate about bestiality, he said that furries went at it with animals and my point was that furries only did the horizontal mambo with anthropomorphics, or other furries. So this debate lasted for a few hours, while we were walking through the mall and collecting weird looks from other people...

Just look around these forums and you'll see plenty of trivial arguments.

I misunderstood what my friend was talking about a while back and we ended up having an argument about what I was thinking. WHAT I WAS THINKING! I told him exactly what I was thinking and he kept saying that I was wrong, not in my thinking but in me telling him what I was thinking because he knew better than I did...

that MJ couldn't have toched that child because he was such a good singer....or how dangleing a babie over a rail is ok if he did it to show people his torso.
