What in the world is the point of this? These aren't questions to make a couple ask each other, it's just forcing them to say mean things to each other. For example:

> O.K., fine, I’m adding your dishwasher issue to my list of irritating things, too. So there.

>I already know that story. And I was there for that one. It didn’t happen like that.

Those are not questions, that's a statement.

I can make a couple fall out of love by forcing them to ask only one "question": "Do you love me? No you don't, I hate you and I'm breaking up with you".



Still that wouldn't really do it though, an in love couple would just laugh at it/each other. But keep in mind that this is intended as humor.


I have been on the internet too long today to have an immediately cynical view of it. On second viewing I did appreciate this one as it sticks to the theme of asking questions:

>What would constitute a “perfect” day for you? Why do we always just go home and watch Netflix instead of doing any of that stuff?

I do think it would have made a bit more sense as satire if the author had stuck to only questions such as this, but perhaps I'm just nitpicking.
