Dear couple making out...

Dear Couple Making Out at the National Zoo, exactly what part of watching a sleeping (i.e. heavily sedated) panda turns you on?

Dear Couple Making Out in the Subway, first, it's rush hour so, stop it, and second of all, it's literally 100 degrees and 100% humidity down here and there are already enough weird smells, what part of you is thinking, "Ah, yes, right now, in an enclosed dirty and pressure cooker-like environment, is where I absolutely have to make out with my sig fig?" Sure it's fun and sexy when no one's in the car, late at night, just the two of you on your way home, what the hell? Why not lay down the foundation on the train ride home? However, 6 p.m. after the workday on a Tuesday is not sexy or vacant for that matter.

Dear Couple Making Out in fitting room, I appreciate that you find shopping a romantic endeavor, but could you move the lovefest to a place where I'm not the 15th person in line to try on this dress that I already know will make my ass look big?

Dear Couple Making Out against the wall at the bar, do you even know each other?

Dear Couple Making Out on The Great Lawn, I believe park rules strictly forbid food, drink and affection.

I really like this blogger's style, and her take on relationships. It's quite different, and for a very young woman (she's still in college) she writes extremely well. Does anyone else have a Dear Couple scenario they could add to this?

Dear Couple Making Out, This Single Life

heheeh She describes herself as "seriously single (and bitter) girl" - know thyself!

I read another post she wrote, and enjoyed this piece:

"Some people you know you’re going to regret getting involved with but you do it anyway. Whether they’re mysterious (read: shady) or different (read: an asshole who finds new ways to treat you like ****) or charismatic (read: manipulative); something draws you in against your better judgment. We play the silly little games, cue the coy little winks and wander down the beaten path, pioneered by the ones who told us to have no fear and live each day as if we were dying; problem is not every day is a day that we die. In fact it’s the realizing that you didn’t die the next day that makes you regret at all because when it comes to waking up next to a passed-out douchebag in an Affliction tee with a hangover from too much tequila and too many bad choices, it’s easier to wish you had died instead."

Whilst all your places for making out are inappropriate, nothing beats this couple..................

"Banned: Bus driver who hit couple lying in road

Published on Wednesday 5 February 2003 22:14

A BUS driver who ran over and killed a courting couple as they lay giggling in the middle of the road has been banned from driving. Paul Liversage, 56, gulped as he was found guilty of driving without due care and attention at Sheffield Magistrates Court yesterday. He had been behind the wheel of a First Mainline "Nipper" bus last March 3 when he drove down a badly-lit road and straight over Kim Fontana, 32, and Paul Cowley, 40, killing them instantly. The couple had been spotted by a number of pedestrians and drivers as they frolicked in the middle of Station Road at Westfield but had laughed off suggestions that they should move.

The court heard that paramedics called to the scene found Fontana's jumper was pulled up while her boyfriend's trousers were down.

But despite the couple's own actions District Judge Alan William said the standard of Liversage's driving had fallen below that expected by the law. Liversage, of Armstead Road, Beighton, was banned from driving for six months, fined 350 and ordered to pay 150 court costs.

"I have no doubt that the events of that night will remain with you, Mr Liversage, for a very long time. I am equally of the view that the friends and family of Mrs Fontana and Mr Cowley will long remember the tragedy of their deaths. Nothing I say will bring them back. It was an extraordinary situation and I take that into account."

But the district judge said he was certain that Liversage could have slowed his bus or taken evasive action to avoid what he had admitted perceiving as a problem in the road more quickly than he did.

Liversage, a commercial vehicle driver for more than 20 years, had denied driving without due care and attention at his two-day trial. Yesterday he told the court of the terrible moment when he realised he was about to hit two people in the road rather than a pile of rubbish he had previously thought was in his path.

"At the last moment it moved. I realised it wasn't a bag of rubbish but I couldn't do anything to avoid or stop it. I came off the accelerator and tried to avoid it and hit the brakes but there was so little time. It all happened so quick I don't think I could have done anything different."

DARWIN AWARD! To be honest, who would expect to find a couple making out in the middle of the road? His explanation that he believed the mass to be a bag of rubbish is credible, especially considering the fact that it occurred at night. Also, the couple weren't giddy teenagers, they were 32 and 40 years old - c'mon!!

Unless he had been going too fast to properly control his vehicle, it's hard to see how the driver was at fault.

Now we all have the answer to The Beatles' 1968 musical question - and the answer is, "Hell, no!"

I was astonished he got banned from driving. The poor guy must feel terrible as it is. It just goes to show that you run over detritus on the road at your peril!

Sheffield was in uproar at the time. It's utterly unbelievable as a story.

Very relevant video Luna!

I suspect the man I was out with the other night could've been one of the dear making out blogs characters, but I wasn't, hopefully he didn't cause an accident on the way home.

Thus the cause of all these global observations!
