    So I Went Out To Eat Tonight and..

    So I went to a nice restaurant tonight and had to shake my head. Here there 2 idiots sitting on the same side of the table and nobody on the other side. Why would people do this? First of all, it looks stupid. Secondly, they cant talk to each other while looking in each others faces. And it wasnt like there was a TV to watch on the wall or something where only one could see it if they sat across from each other. People who sit on the same side of the table are total idiots in my opinion and should be forced to sit across from each other. Does this outrage anyone else?

    No, I do it sometimes. It can be casual and intimate.

    You just sound like a grumpy old fart.

    Nope. What a weird thing this is to complain about. You're weird.

    We shouldn't get upset for small things like that. If it makes them happy then who are we to judge.

    How else would you give a handjob while eating?

    it's sad that this "outrages" you. mind your own god damn business and don't worry what other people are doing when it doesn't effect you in the slightest.

    How else would I get a dose of sweet nothings whispered in my ear? Or show her pictures of cats on my phone? Duh.

    This is behavior from them is totally unacceptable. I would recommend at least twenty lashes each and banishment from the Realm!

    Things like this are why we need Sharia Law. Sitting on the same side of the table is punishable by death, as it should be.

    It's such a silly thing to complain about. Did you ask them why they were sitting by each other? I'm guessing there was probably a legitimate reason for it and they aren't obligated to tell everyone that comes in. Maybe they were a couple, maybe one of them was hard of hearing, maybe they were expecting more friends to show up and sit on the other side, maybe one moved because noise/odor/breeze on the other side or a problem with the seat. Maybe they were gangsters or spies who didn't want their backs to the door. Who knows. Life's too short to worry about this stuff.

    Oh look, Orlong is once again outraged about a restaurant. Let's see what he wants to try and ban this time. Stay tuned...

    We have a bar we go to and do this, normally because the bar tender is stacked and she flaunts it. It's a nice show.

    Plus I don't think I've ever looked at my buddy and said I need to look into your eyes while we talk.

    I sit next to my wife when we're having a date night or when we want to people watch.

    If I would have known it was offending people, I would have done it more often.

    No they obviously just did it to piss him off. I mean why else would two people sit on the same side of a table while minding their own business except for pissing him off?

    Also, this is 'Murica. Why do you hate freedom?

    It makes silences less awkward when you aren't staring directly at each others' faces.

    The irony of you, of all people, are saying something like this is so incredibly powerful, it might have its own magnetic field.
