Me, as we're walking downtown with our visitors: And this street (pointing up street overhung with large, shady trees) is where people come at night to make out. And pee.
J: What's "make out"?
Me: Like, kissing.
J: Why here?
Me: I guess because it's dark, they can be in the shadows, so they feel more private?
J: I wouldn't kiss in the shadows. I'd kiss in the light right under a streetlamp. That's more romantic. And then as you kissed YOU would cast a shadow ... of love.
