You argue with your wife, Doug, that is a waste of time, and nothing good will come out of it. Trust me, you can't win.
Trying to convince someone of something when they have their mind made up is a waste of time. It's like banging your head against a wall to get rid of a headache. You will still have the headache(or worse), and a dent in the wall to fix.
I knew a young couple who argued over the quickest route to get home. They actually took two different ways to see who was right. The difference was three minutes shorter the way the wife suggested. 3 MINUTES - who cares???? I asked her would you rather be happy or right? She answered without hesitation - "right," she said. I wonder if they are still married.
