Huh.
"How long have you two been married?"
Now I have to admit the line made me laugh out loud. BUT... I have to wonder. The phrase "You fight like married folk"... Where did it come from? I'm missing it in my marriage. And I'm perfectly okay with that! I married my best friend and I'm a very happy camper. So when did fighting like cats and dogs become the cultural normative perception of us married people?
