Conflict

Okay, this is a true story that happened and I was there to see it:
It happened last Saturday, 18/04/2009. My brother wanted to eat some thing (forgot what) but my father wanted him to brush his teeth first. Yeah, nothing big, just brush his teeth. It was early morning by the way.
However, my brother did something stupid- he had to start talking back to my father. My father, being a rather reasonable guy with spare time on weekends, started talking to him about why he should brush his teeth, practically repeating the same reasons over and over again with my brother replying with a stupid question of some kind.
Ironically, my brother still brushed his teeth in the end before getting to eat that thing. Not only that, he argued with my father for about 15 minutes, wasting 15 minutes of his own life for nothing. I guess that's what people do when they don't know what to do in the Early mornings.

The conclusion?
Conflicts are stupid.
