There are few things more ridiculous than the petty domestic disputes between two people that live together. Many of the topics you end up fighting about look way blown out of proportion to anyone on the outside. Still, it can be hard to feel like a house is a home when dealing with this stuff. It's important to get on top of it.

Some of the biggest arguments revolve around the kitchen. Countless roomies have suffered at the hands of a food stealer or dirty dish avoider before, but I'm not sure how many could claim to have dealt with an attachment to a tuber. When one Twitter user complained that the guy she lived with was refusing to throw out a sprouting sweet potato. Insisting she was putting in the garbage sooner rather than later, numerous individuals tried to protect it from her wrath. Maybe it would be less of a problem if he decided to plant it.
