The argument was pointless, but I was still right

Interesting phenom: the continuing popularity of teen mags, a la Tiger Beat. Perhaps it's because I managed to make it through my tween/teen years without buying one. I didn't grow up drooling over some Hollywood superstar -- I mean, who was there to drool over? Fred Savage?

Paul and I were browsing the magazine aisle in Walgreens the other night, and I picked up a copy of a teen mag titled M Magazine. Honestly, the sheet of celeb-faced glitter tattoos caught my eye.

I poked Paul in the ribs. "Hey, check it -- glitter tattoos!" He rolled his eyes and glanced at the cover. "Hey, are those the twins that played that kid on Full House?"

"That kid?" I asked. "There were two boys on Full House."

What ensued was a long, pointless argument about the children of Full House. The conclusion: The twin girls in the cast (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) played one character named Michelle Tanner. However, the twin boys in the cast played two characters named Alex and Nicky Katsopolis. Thank you, Wikipedia, for settling that argument -- especially since I was right.

Oh, and the boys on the magazine cover weren't the ones on Full House anyway, although the mag-cover boys did star (wearing a lot of lipstick, no less) in this rather disturbing movie. Yep, that's a boy on the movie poster. :-/

So there you have it, one of the top ten most pointless arguments I've ever had. Can anyone top it?

that full house argument was perhaps one of the nerdiest arguments i have either witnessed or been a part of.

Also - wikipedia is full of liars ^_______________________^

Dude! Jeremiah 17:9! That's my favorite Bible verse. Yeah, I just said that.

Also, boys in lipstick are gross.
