Excessive PDAs

[cardsfansince82]

Don't get me wrong. If you are out in public and feel the urge to give your significant other a quick kiss or something, it doesn't bother me a bit. But some people are just ridiculous about it. I just got back from Wal Mart where I witnessed one of the most absurd things I've ever seen in my life.

I go down an aisle and there is this fat ugly couple that I estimated to be in their early 50's completely going at it. I'm talking full embrace, tongues down each other's throat sloppy, drunken one night stand style making out. Their cart is parked on one half of the aisle and they are standing in the other half blocking me from getting past, completely oblivious to anything else around them. I clear my throat, they don't miss a beat they just keep on but slide a foot or so to the side so I can barely squeeze by. I move on down the aisle and continue shopping. I look back about thirty seconds later and he has her pinned up against the shelves, no exaggeration. She's got one leg around him and I thought he was going to start dry humping her any second. WTF people?

So I finish getting my stuff and of course there's only one checkout lane open and of course the baby boomer nymphos are directly in front of me in the middle of round two. In the freaking checkout lane. The person in front of them is done paying but they just keep right on at it. The girl working the register clears her throat. No response.
Me: Excuse me? Can you pay for your groceries?
They both stop and look at me like I just called the woman a female dog.
Romeo: What's your problem, son.
Me: I'm not your son. I don't know what exactly it is you both are doing but I'd appreciate it if you would pay for your groceries or let me pay for mine.
Juliet: You're an a**hole.

Right, I'm an a**hole. Is it really that hard to go out in public and do something as mundane as grocery shopping without resisting the urge to molest someone? You gross out and/or inconvenience people around you but I'm the one with the problem. I didn't watch my buddies die face down in the muck so I'd have to put up with crap like this when I just want some freaking bread and milk.

Nothing good ever happens at Walmart.

I thought you were complaining about Blackberry's.

I agree. I have stopped going there completely except for emergency situations (i.e. I'm out of town, I need Item X, and Wal-Mart is the first place I see).

Last week at the ballgame, I too got to witness excessive PDA. This was during the Marlins blowout of the Cards, so the crowd was starting to get sparse by the end. A girl, who looked to be approximately 17 and strung out as a mo-fo. A guy, who looked to be approximately 35 and also high as a kite. She climbs up on his lap and they just start going at it like there's no tommorrow. It was like witnessing live that scene in Traffic where the girl is all strung out at her dealer's apartment. And the entire time, a woman who appeared to be the man's sister is sitting right next to them, calmly texting away on her cell phone. An usher eventually came down and broke it up. But it was nasty. Then the girl kept staring at me. Really creepy.

--P--

This is a very quality rant, excessive PDA really bothers me.

Holding hands? Fine. Hugs? Great. Peck of affection? Why not. But people are literally falling on top of each other out there. Have some respect for others, especially children, folks.

I'm super turned on.

My first night in Maryland about 6 years ago, I go into a Wal-Mart to get a few things, I am walking down the medecine isle, and three thug wannabees are coming the other direction, side by side taking up the entire isle, expecting me to move to the side. Thug three bumps in-to me, hard, and he nearly falls down because I didn't give an inch. They all turn to me and thug two says, "You looking to die tonight?" And I say, "no, I am looking for the asparine, they are the only thing that stops the voices in my head, you got any asparine?" Thug 1 looks like he is going to piss his pants and says, no dude, um they are over there, and all three walk a way quickly. I saw them later in the electronics, they saw me coming and quickly went the other way. I hate Wal-Mart.
