What was your most satisfying moment of winning an argument?

Ah! Finally a question that I can answer!

Having been married forever, I eventually learned that arguing was futile; if I lost the argument I lost, and if I won… I'd lose but probably in even worse ways.

I think we were picking out kitchen tile or furniture or something. We just couldn’t agree, until I blurted out: “I prefer this one, and I have better taste than you!”

Clearly a dangerous thing to say to my wife. She looked at me quite incredulously and asked: “What!? Would you mind repeating yourself!!?”

I did the quickest thinking of my life — having recognized immediately the error of my ways:

“I have better taste than you”, I stated with confidence. “And I can prove it!”

“Oh? How? This better be good.”

My reply was golden: “Well, I married you, but you married me.”

Game, set and match.
