Family fights are the most epic because there’s basically no escape. You can become estranged from your family, but for the most part, people are drawn back into the fold again and again, even if it’s only for two winter holidays set too close together every year. That means arguments can be long-standing and unresolved for YEARS. Tensions get high and then people explode over ridiculous things—which makes for good stories.
The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon likes to play hashtag games with his followers to read on the show. His latest one is #DumbestFamilyFights, and it has delivered true gold to Twitter. First, he shared his own stupidest family argument, writing, “An aunt once got mad that none of us wished her dog a happy birthday. When we called to apologize, she said he was too hurt to speak to us right now.”

The replies and hashtagged stories are hilarious to read, mainly because they’re not about your family. Enjoy:

My sister once screamed at me for an entire car ride because I was looking out her window. To this day my whole family will randomly yell “DONT LOOK OUT MY WINDOW” at each other #dumbestfamilyfight

My dad, my sister and I got in a fight with my mother because she didn’t want us to imitate her sleeping position wherever we go (we did it anyway and invented mom-planking) #DumbestFamilyFight @FallonTonight pic.twitter.com/yxk75uYNyw

I had an argument with my sister who said “tomato sauce tastes good on everything”. She wouldn’t admit she was wrong so I forced her to put tomato sauce on all of her food until she gave in. #DumbestFamilyFight

Me and my parents and sister had a very lengthy fight about my wedding. Which sounds normal until you find out that I’m not engaged. In fact, I don’t even have a boyfriend… #DumbestFamilyFight

My twin brother told me once to sit down , so i told him to sit down, he then told me to sit down, i then told him to sit down, this went on for 30 minutes ending up with us both lying down because neither one of us would give in sitting down. #DumbestFamilyFight

The day the clocks turned back for daylight savings time. Members of my family kept arguing about what time we should feed the cat so she wouldn’t be confused. #DumbestFamilyFight

My brothers often argue with each other on who is the ugly one between them both… They’re identical twins. #DumbestFamilyFight
