If you've been quarantined with your partner or spouse during this pandemic, you might have learned things about them that make you feel like you were living with a stranger before...
Did you fall in love with someone who excessively interrupts during a conference call? Just learned your partner who works from home works all day in bed, surrounded by snacks? Are you living with someone who refuses to put pants on for a Zoom meeting? Quarantine has truly been a journey.
While it's safe to safe we're all sufficiently stressed out right now, being trapped inside even with the people you love can be difficult. If you've found yourself starting a fight over something fully ridiculous, you're definitely not alone.
So, when author Ijeoma Oluo asked her Twitter fans about the crazy things they've wanted to yell/have yelled at their partners while stuck in the house, people were definitely ready to share their hilarious adult temper tantrums.
