People are unique creatures, and what makes all of us truly inimitable is not only a set of external features, fingerprints and so on, but also a bunch of other beliefs, habits and opinions that we accumulate in ourselves over the years of our life.
And it’s not just some meaningful beliefs, like voting for Democrats or Republicans. Someone, for example, is sure that the egg needs to be broken from the sharp side, and someone else – from the blunt side. One selflessly defends the correct spelling of a relatively uncommon word, and another is ready not to communicate with a person who supports a football team they do not like.
In fact, each of us has our own hill which we are willing to die on – and sometimes these hills are so petty and silly that it’s a shame to lay down our heads for them. But we are still ready to do this. And we, such people, are thousands and thousands. For example, when the question “What is the pettiest, silliest, most meaningless hill you are willing to die on?” appeared on the AskReddit community, it got 80.2K upvotes and over 51.7K different comments.
Bored Panda made a list with the most popular comments from this thread, so please read on for these incredibly small and sometimes weird yet important beliefs that people always stand for. By the way, we also have our own hill – we are sure that everyone who reads this post should definitely write their own comment, so please feel free to do so.

#2 Move Your Cart To The Side In Anticipation Of Others Trying To Get By
You’re not the only person in the grocery store, lady! Move your cart to the side IN ANTICIPATION of others trying to get by. It’s not predicting the future and you really need to work on your spacial awareness.
Edit: I’ve long held the opinion that there are two kinds of people in this world: “shopping cart” people and non-shopping cart people. And just remember, it’s always malice, never ignorance.

#6 Those New ‘Extra Safe, High Visibility’ Headlights Should Not Be Installed In Any Vehicles Larger Than A Wagon
Those new ‘extra safe, high visibility’ headlights should not be installed in any vehicles larger than a wagon. I don’t need LED spotlights pointing into my eyes from the front and all three mirrors. Seeing is fun for other drivers too.

#10 If My Wife Stops Asking Me Questions And Watches The Movie, She’ll Understand What It Is About
That if my wife just stops asking me questions and watch the movie- she’ll understand what the movie is about
Edit: for the record my wife is the best person in the world and if I were to answer this question for her- she’d probably tell me that the way I load the dishes will eventually give her a stroke. Her way does get them cleaner after all.

#12 Monopoly Is An Inherently Unbalanced And Badly Designed Game
Monopoly is an inherently unbalanced and badly designed game. ON PURPOSE. Whoever starts winning will simply keep winning, and the rest of the player’s get a slow slog to bankruptcy. And the winner is usually the most ruthless person at the table. This is why it breaks friendships.
It was meant to show the unfairness of unregulated capitalism, and somehow it became an American classic. But compared to modern games, it’s terrible.
