Money fights.
I think I'd avoid the style of argument. Our "arguments" are more like debates, where we show concern, but we don't try to use personal cutting remarks or raise our voices.

Tidiness, my mom cleaned twice a week every week, even on vacation, and my dad was messy, I see the same characteristics in my partner and I, he's messy, I'm tidy, it's bound to lead to a few fights.
My dad wants to keep eating unhealthy stuff and my mom trying to get him to eat healthy :).
Several arguments about money.
Easy. Money. Everything was about money with them, because my mom is sort of a material person and my dad hated that. I know that my fiancee has her material moments but she accepts what I am able and willing to give, so we have avoided that fight. And I love her for that.
They argued most over money - my dad was very tight on the one hand but a total spendthrift on the other, which led to a lot of bad feeling and arguments. My partner and I tend to not to argue in that way, we get grumpy and talk it through. (even if it leads to lots of pots being slammed around in the meantime!)
My parents fought about which religion to teach us kids. I want to avoid any religion argument.
money
I can't remember; but there was a fight in which my mother pulled a butcher knife on my father. Whatever fight that one was is the one I want to avoid.
Debt
I don't remember my parent arguing over anything in particular, just getting cross and yelling at each other.
Never really had to try and avoid shouting though.
