When people don’t believe in facts, you can try to explain to them the science behind it, but you will not necessarily succeed and there is no point in arguing. People like to do that anyway. Sometimes it’s very important, such as when it comes to huge topics like vaccination, and it’s actually useful to make the other person see it your way, but other times it’s just small little things like usage of a word or food preference.

Even though these are small things when looking at the big picture, people are wholeheartedly convinced in them and we all probably have an opinion about an insignificant thing that doesn’t coincide with what the majority thinks. It actually reveals the way you think, so Reddit user FunWithAPorpoise asked people what are their smallest hills that they’ll die on.

This fun thread went a bit viral on Reddit with almost 34k upvotes and nearly 26k people got involved in the conversation, sometimes pointing out valid truths and in other cases making you want to argue with them.

    I lived in an apartment like this,all carpets except the kitchen. I now hate rugs too. Sort of defeats the purpose of getting rid of the carpet. Bathmats are acceptable, easy to clean. Not so mutch with huge rugs. I have asthma, allergies, snd dogs when we had it. Plus the usual human shedding of fur, hairs and skin and ain't nothin will convince me to go back to carpet. I'll stick with concrete underneath if i have to.

    Growing up, there was indoor-outdoor carpeting in the bathrooms and kitchen. It was all the rage. While I wouldn’t repeat it in my own home, it was fine. It dried fast, there was no pile, and you could both clean it with a vacuum or scrub it down with a brush. Spot cleaning was a breeze. But, again, it was indoor-outdoor carpet. Some people even carpeted their patios with it. Most photos I see of carpeted bathrooms today look like they’re just using whatever regular, living room, carpet they like; including shag. There is no way that’s sanitary. It’s just nasty. Not sure what this one is made of, but it makes an immense difference.

Our big stores (like supermarkets) don’t tend to have greeter anymore they will have security guards and customer service desks near by so you can ask questions. It’s the small shop that have them and they stand by the door watching you and jump on you the second you even look in the window.
