Hypothetical Boyfriends

Today is the day after Valentine’s Day. Which according to the interwebs (and other places too I’m guessing) Single Awareness Day. Which, in my opinion, is an excuse for single people to wallow in pity. Anyway. Jo and I are are going to talk about PDA today in the spirit of Valentine’s Day.

“Hey you want to go out on Single Awareness Day?!” Asked absolutely no one ever. Single Awareness Day. I remember hearing about that and I imagned someone saying, “HEY I’M SINGLE I’M GOING TO HAVE A PARTY ON SINGLE AWARENESS DAY!” And then I was laughing and then I thought, “Single awareness day? Is that the only day we be aware of stuff? What?!” And yeah! Anyway. PDA! Should not be allowed to happen every five seconds. When it’s not Valentine’s Day. Even then!

PDA can be cute, in my opinion. Like if you see a couple holding hands walking down the street. That’s technically PDA. But when you see people like D and K who literally kiss constantly. In the hall, in lunch, outside of their next class. That’s so annoying! Just freaking stop!

See?! That’s what I mean! It’s just like, why? WHY?! Give me one good reason. And then give me another one. And then a third one. And then I’ll consider it.

*cocks head* Me give you a reason?

No. D and K and why they do what they do! I mean, I agree with you. If it’s something like that then I’m perfectly okay. But if you want to make out every few seconds, please, do not do it in front of me.

Oh okay. But yeah. And then there are my fictional charries. Well . . . all my charries are fictional . . . I don’t base them off of people. Unless they are based of BD. Anyway. My charries. In the little “romantic” scenes I watch there’s kind of a lot of PDA. Not necessarily kissing, but other things. And yeah . . . Don’t ask me why I decided to say that because I don’t know.

Because they can be an exception? I don’t know. I think when it’s a drawing, then it’s acceptable. Because it’s not like . . . I don’t know. I don’t know. Look at that. I don’t know. Anyway!

Anyway. What else is there to say about PDA?

That it also stands for Personal something something!

*frowns* No it doesn’t . . . well, it could . . . I guess . . . well . . .

Yeah it does! It’s those little device things people used to use instead of phones to like . . . set dates and stuff! A Person Device somethin’! Something like that!

Well okay then.

Well I think that’s all I have to say . . .

Me too, but we can’t stop this post right here. It’s much too short.

Well. Then. Let’s look at this right . . . here *points*

*cocks head* What?

SEE?! PDA!!! IT’S PALM DEVICE! LOOK! 

Traditional PDAs

Today's traditional PDAs are descendents of the original PalmPilot and Microsoft Handheld PC devices. Palm devices run the Palm OS (operating system), and Microsoft Pocket PCs run Windows Mobile. The differences between the two systems are fewer than in the past.

SEE?! SEE?! SEE?! YEAH! I KNEW I WASN’T COMPLETELY INSANE!

And now I know why I didn’t know what you were talking about. Anyway. PDA . . . we can’t really talk about if we’ve ever done any PDA because none of us have ever dated before. But I’ve kissed a boy in the past. Way in the past. Like, first grade in the past. That was . . . interesting.

I remember that story! Well I don’t know.PDA. I want to know which one was named that first. PDA.

Ask the smartest teenager ever.

Okay. Fine. Come here smartest teenager. I need to ask you a question. Well I found a definition. PDA is defined as an acronym for either personal digital assistant (a mini-computer that lets you keep track of your schedule, keep your contacts with you and look at documents on the go) or public display of affection (kissing, hugging or showing affection to your romantic partner in public).

1. An example of a PDA is an electronic device to store appointments.
2. An example of a PDA is kissing on the street corner.

That’s not very helpful . . .

I know, but it’s all I could find . . .

So shall we talk about . . . in a hypothetical situation, if we were dating, would we be all lovey dovey in public? Or would you like to end this post? Or do you want to talk about something else?

You decide. Remember?! You’re my decision maker!

Well then. We’re going with the hypothetical situation. You first. With your Logan, would you be lovey dovey in public?

In the dream, no. Not often, at least. Wait. At least? I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I meant, Not often, I mean. Every once in a while yeah. But not in front of a bunch of people. Sometimes. Okay. Failure. So let me rephrase that. In public, we were affectionate on occasion. With not as many people, then that meant more affection. Which I think it’s pretty good.

That makes logical sense. Personally, I don’t like to be touched. But sometimes I can be affectionate. Key word, sometimes. So I mean, I guess it would depend on my mood. And if my hypothetical boyfriend--woah. Let me rephrase that. It would probably also depend on my hypothetical boyfriend’s mood as well.

I know that from experience! So that would make sense.

Exactly. So this has now been three pages. Do you think that’s long enough?

I think it is, and my computer is about to die. So take the last word, Marie!

*takes last word*
