If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!
When we were growing up my brother and I fought all the time. Because of the situation at home, it was just the two of us most of the time. He was a pest who wouldn't listen and I sooooo abused the power my parents gave me over him. We both actually broke bones! (I slammed his hand in a door, broke his finger,and he chased me through the house, I tripped and broke my toe.) As adults, I disagree with alot of his life choices, but he is my brother and I would and have done almost anything for him!
I used to follow my brother around like a puppy dog. He hated me for it. Now that we are both adults...we get a long very well. He was especially helpful to me when right before I turned 18 and was having some issues with my mother about being an adult.

My favorite bible verse:
"If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into heck." Matthew 5:29
My brother and I used to fight all of the time when we were kids. Now that my parents are both gone we seem to get along better, although we do have the occasional disagreement from time to time. No broken bones or anything like that yet and hopefully never.
My brother is 2 1/2 years younger then I am, when I was around 11 we stopped fighting. Now we have some arguments but nothing like we used to, thank goodness!
When I was younger I fought with my brother lots. Now we are older we just argue, havent had an actual fight in a long time. When we argue we yell at each other for a while then stop talking to months, i m actually in the middle of one of those right now.
We don't fight a lot, but 'debating' any given topic to death just for the sake of the argument isn't uncommon.
Only one life twill soon be past, only what's done for Christ twill last;
And when I am dying how happy I'll be, if the lamp of my life has been burnt out for Thee!

I don't see you and your brother fighting...that just isn't right. But the debating...that I believe.
My brother and I...well...all I have to do it poke him to hurt him...yeah. We fight a lot. I am the one who just the most phsycal damage because if I fight back my mom will ground me for life.
My brother is seven years younger than I am so, of course, we get into a few quarrels. He doesn't have enough maturity for anything. However, we never fight, physically.
My siblings and I fight constanly, but it's about real stuff probably less than 10% of the time. The other 90%, we're just messing around.. It's a bit dysfunctional, but still fun.
