A Question For the Ages

Making out on the subway platform during daylight hours...acceptable or no?

I think the mood is slightly altered if a war didn't recently end and he's not wearing a sailor outfit.

Also, if there's no confetti falling, then don't even bother. The mood just isn't right when instead of 76 trombones and American flags, you have one drunk trumpet player and graffiti on the new NBC Fall lineup.

Making out on the subway platform during late night hours...acceptable or no?

Before breaking the question down, I must say that it is fun to do but not necessarily fun to view. I digress...

Again as above, the mood is changed if there's no Frank Sinatra playing in the distance and she's not in heels.

Also, if him and her are stumbling around, almost bumping into you and dangerously close to passing the yellow line while dancing to the trumpet player's music (which is really slam poetry against Bush in between hacks and coughs on the trumpet), then please stop. Or at least wait till the train comes and give people a choice whether or not to ignore you. 

This brings me to another question: have subway platforms become suburban doorways? 

P.S. I really don't think I'd have time to wonder about this if I wasn't unemployed.
