Basically this is the kind of thing that goes on in normal households when a heated argument ensues but no one ever actually has the guts to say, "Yes, I used a Wii controller because that was the first thing I could get my hands on."

I've never gotten into a physical altercation with a boyfriend but I can think of quite a few times when me and my younger brother went at each others throats using much more. . .deliberate weapons. Not knives or anything like that. . .just furniture.
