Old people kissing

As terrible as I'm sure I will be accused of being for saying this, I'm starting to think that there should be a law that says you have to have a special permit in order to show PDA in public (aside from hugging). The permit will only be given to people who are good-looking, and it should be required that it be renewed once every few years. I'm getting sick of seeing Colonel Sanders walk around campus so close to his girlfriend or wife (whichever she is) that you couldn't pry the two apart with a crowbar. One time I even saw them making out, and I've been having nightmares ever since. Just one more plus to going to a state school though, right? Of course, I'll hand it to ya' that I'm a very sexy 22 year old man and thus I would be one of the permit carriers, and I'm also not saying that the person has to have drop-dead good looks either. There are plenty of mediocre-looking people around campus I would not mind seeing close to a boyfriend/girlfriend. I just think that people need to admit it when they're just not on the top 10 list anymore! Okay, I know you're thinking that this is terrible, and I suppose you're right. I really should not be writing this. However, I also get tired of seeing two hairy prunes smashed up against each other because they're "in love." If that's what they need to express their love to each other (in public anyway), their love is pretty shallow, and they need to deepen it. Love is a decision (despite Hollywood's statements that it's a feeling). It's a commitment to say to someone I will stand by you. I love you, which means that I have decided to care for you, honor you, and cherish you. You are an amazing creation of God, and thus I choose to love you. It doesn't necessarily have to be in a husband/wife boyfriend/girlfriend relationship either...it could be between two friends. It's exactly how we should decide to treat each and every friend of ours. Sometimes it's expressed compassionately (and within the blessings of marriage, sexually), but other times it's just expressed through actions...defending a friend when they're being attacked by someone else when you know the attack is not right, helping a friend when they need help with something, and hanging out with them on a Saturday evening just because they're your friend. That's love. Plus (in order to break up the serious mood of this post which was supposed to be slightly humorous and completely pointless save for the sole purpose of getting one of my pet peeves off my chest), with such a love, it makes it so that people don't feel the need to express PDA in public, making it so that I don't have to see Willie Nelson make out with Aunt Bea.

Plus, while we're on the subject, are sound effects necessary during compassionate moments? Mind you, it's kinda cute when a little kid goes "MmmmmmmmmMAH!" while giving someone a kiss, and it's not so bad when someone else does it while giving the little kid a peck on the cheek either, but it gets old from about the age of five and up. Therefore, I also think that we should have a law against sound effects while kissing, unless you are under the age of five or kissing someone under the age of five. Truly these things would help make the world a better place.
