A phrase typically used to indicate a settled argument or coming to a truce instead of continuing an argument or debate.
But what happens when the argument is between two BEST friends?
How can they just drop it and say, "Well, we agree to disagree. I suppose?"
They can't. Not entirely. Hence a new definition: "We agree to disagree as long as we can present our arguments and let other people decide who is right on, www.weagreetodisagree.org " This is a term which describes the situation where two best friends realize again and again that they have nothing in common - they agree to disagree.
Friend one: "I love shopping in boutiques!"
Friend two: "Are you effing nuts?! They are way too expensive!"
Friend one: "Well I guess we agree to disagree... in a very public way!"

Kid 2: What happened?
Kid 1: Mom wanted to go to Olive Garden for some alone time with dad, but the NBA championships were on, it was 4th quarter in game 6 of the Bulls-Celtics series. Dad promised to go later, but mom insisted on going now. After 10 minutes of bickering, they ordered me to my room. I could still hear them cursing though
Kid 2: So what happened?
Kid 1: They agree to disagree. Mom went to olive garden with some of her friends and dad stayed home and watched the game.
Kid 2: Was it worth it?
Kid 1: I guess, the bulls won by one point in OT and mom came home full with a smile
