Fiance and I are beginning to combine stuff. Sorry too late, she has the ring so no running. She has this artificial tree that she wants to put in the house. I want to sell it at the garage sale. I just think it's stupid to put a tree, artificial at that, in the house. Trees belong outside IMO. Her argument is that all the design shows on HGTV put them in their designs so they are classy. Settle this debate.

You really want to get in an argument over an artificial tree?


There were many things I would have loved for my husband to part with when we first moved in together. Realized wasn't worth the fight and not that big a deal in the long run.

Garage sales are trashy. Some would even say...... Beta.

If it's a good, high-quality artificial tree -- ok. However, there is a fine line and the cheap ones look like tacky trash.

Be on the safe side and "accidentally" sleepwalk to the tree and pee all over it. She'll be likely to toss it then.

You wouldn't get much in a garage sale anyway.

Better to lose the ring than your freedom and future earnings.

Is it something you'd see in a nursing home or doctor's office? Toss.

Is it something legit that isn't disgusting? Stick in it a guest room or some random closet.

It's a fake tree.

What you're telling us is that you plan on going to your fiancee and saying, "Well the folks from Tigerdroppings gave me arguents A, B, & C, so blah, blah, blah, we're going to throw away this tree." Whatever the OT suggests is final?

That's one of those arguments that is not worth fighting over. Save your fights for the big shite when you need to put the foot down, just put up with the petty shite.

Let her have the tree.

There are going to be thousands of other reasons to get in an argument once you're married.

How much is tree worth? (a)

Is your fiancé hot? (b)

Do you like to argue? (c)

If c=no, then sell

If b=no, then sell and run

If a= < c + b, then fricking give in to what she wants. She will win using her lady parts and you'll be helpless. God bless you.

I can't tell you what to do but I can tell you what I would do. I would say "there are probably a few people on HGTV that think butt secs is classy. How do you feel about that in our house?"

Fake trees inside are trashy. You are the winner. Put it in the street and see who picks it up. 100% sure it will be a trashy person.

Marry her and immediately turn around and file for divorce.

Then say, "Now who won that argument, trick?"

Choose your battles wisely. Open a beer, sit in your chair, and say "it looks good babe". Life will be much easier that way. If it starts annoying you, open another beer.

She actually told me to come on here to get the OT opinion. Said she would make her decision on what you said.
