aw, jon. i'm sorry that annoyed you.
as someone who is guilty of said behaviour, i've gotta stick up for the couple. it doesn't sound like it was overly sexual...maybe the couple was on the way to their honeymoon (where's my mind?), and did ask someone to switch seats without success. anyway, i guess this struck a chord with me because i'm in the middle of it all.
i don't doubt for a second that you will be on a plane with the love of your life someday, wanting to kiss them too 
lots of (non-sexual) smooches...see you tonight!
Heaven forbid loving couples kiss each other in public. They should keep it at home.
And while they are at it they should maintain a 12 inch clearance of each other in case they offend another puritan. And the woman should cover her hair lest her tresses attract the lustful stares of other men. And the man should always walk 3 feet in front of the female
Give me a break, its not like they reclined their chairs and she rode his bologna pony during a transatlantic flight.
You need a big, sloppy, public-enraging kiss.
*SMOOCH*
I'm not against PDA in general, it's just that this particular display was the hell out of bounds.
(And she actually did unbuckle, go over to his seat, and straddle-hug him for about as long as it took Bruce Willis to chase the terrorists out of the abandoned church on snowmobiles)
sounds like someone isn't getting any and needs to get laid.
I was subjected to a bunch of "Girls Gone Wild" commercials on in-flight Comedy Central. That's the same as getting laid, right?
I mean, just holding hands across the aisle, I would be fine with. A quick peck across the aisle, sure. But these people where leaning over the aisle, blocking it. I think that is a bit much. Ask people to switch seats or something, really.
Jon, that sounds like the curmudgeonly grousing of a bitter, bitter man. Perhaps it is sad.
But I am also bitter, and since I am also cultivating my personal misanthropy (to steal from Nathan Rabin, like my own little dark banzai tree of the soul), I am right with you, mon frere. Take it on the road, jackasses! The skies ain't that fucking friendly!
I feel like couples, even newlywed/happy ones, should be able to restrain themselves while in a confined space like a plane.
I get annoyed when I see crazy PDA out in public, but at times like those I take a deep breath and simply walk away. Here, you're stuck in your seat, forced by law (and possibly an air marshall), to stay right where you are.
To me, PDA like this is sort of like the guy that talks loudly on his cell phone on while standing in line or on the metro or whatever. He's not outright wrong, but god damn, he's fucking annoying. Have a little courtesy and wait, or do this elsewhere.
I heart the Achewood reference :P
