It's a tale that is almost as old as the institution of marriage itself: a husband suggests something to his wife that she thinks is reckless, she disagrees with him, and all havoc breaks loose. Sometimes, this is something big, like changing jobs or wanting to open up the relationship. Other times, the trigger is so stupid that almost nobody could have seen it coming.

One Reddit story that has recently gained viral attention definitely falls into the latter category. A man decided to complain that his wife forbade him from buying a Minecraft-branded refrigerator while they were shopping together at Target, leading to a massive argument between them. While some people wondered if there was anything that had happened before this to prompt such a dramatic blowout, but many others were quick to condemn his dramatic behavior. One thing's for sure, it all seems like a major and unnecessary overreaction.
