In some divorces, couples fight over who gets the toilet paper

In some divorces, couples fight over who gets the toilet paper.

One of Web Watch’s friends wanted out of his marriage so badly, he left everything behind. The ex-wife got everything – including his clothes.  He felt it was easier to just replace all his stuff then it was to have to deal with her in any way.

Yeah, that was a rough divorce, but rest assured that he’s in a much, much happier place now.

 

So how petty can arguing couples get when it comes to divvying up their accumulated stuff from over the years?

Lawyers are reporting the more obscene demands that they’ve had to deal with their clients over:

  • one woman demanded a cuckoo clock and some toilet paper.   Yes, she got them
  • Jars of mustard
  • Smoked salmon
  • Frozen food from the couple’s freezer
  • 12 pairs of slippers

What usually happens, say the lawyers, is that as soon as one of the divorcing parties say that they’re interested in one item, the other party immediately lays claim to that object too.  What should be a reasonable separation/division of stuff turns costly and more aggravating for all.

So let’s say that you and your significant other would get divorced.  What’s the ONE thing that you’d insist on taking for yourself, no matter what?
