Today, my brother and I got into an intense argument that ended up with us trading blows and having the cops called on us. Apparently I was "insulting his intelligence" by trying to explain that you don't make buttermilk by putting butter in milk. He's 18. FML

This is OP. So to clear things up, neither of us really got into to much trouble, we just got off with a warning. The argument started off with the buttermilk issue and then touched on other personal issues (that I won't disclose), which is why the argument got so heated. One thing led to another, I shoved him, he punched me, i retaliated, etc. and soon enough the cops knocked on our door because neighbors called about a noise disturbance, not because we started to get physical. We usually butt heads about stupid things but this is the only time it got so bad. I take 100% responsibility for what I did, yes, it was stupid, and I completely deserve it. He and I apologized to each other and put it behind us, even though I'm annoyed at the busted lip he gave me, lol.

I feel this could have been settled without hitting each other.

Well yeah, you shouldn't have shoved him, but come on... Butter in milk to make buttermilk? I can accept many levels of stupidity, but I can never understand why people try things randomly (no matter how unlikely they are too work) instead of simply checking online...

That sucks OP, but it is true you can't put butter in milk to make buttermilk, it just doesn't work. But next time tell him that putting vinegar in milk will make a buttermilk substitute.

At least that was the only consequence considering it could have ended much worse.

Sounds like his intelligence deserved to be insulted. But it's crazy that something that dumb came to blows.

I have no idea how buttermilk is made and I'm 21, but it's definitely something silly to fight over.

OP said it started with the buttermilk thing, but escalated because of personal comments made. They didn't hit each other over buttermilk
