Couple kiss at salad bar, woman’s super nuclear freakout at ‘PDA’ goes viral

Next time you’re tempted to kiss your partner in public, you might want to keep an eye out for this woman.

She doesn’t freak out at this mild public display of affection, she goes full-on nuclear in this clip which rapidly went viral after it was posted on Reddit.

Our favourite bit is just after five minutes in and people’s collective groan when she says: “I’m American, I’m from California.”

Here’s what the boyfriend who filmed the clip had to say about it.

Last night my girlfriend of four years and I were waiting patiently for a lady to order her food at this restaurant in Santa Monica, and I had my arms around her from behind and maybe kissed her on the top of the head once or twice, but that was the extent of it.

Out of nowhere, the lady (who was finalizing her transaction) looks at us and exclaims emphatically how inappropriate PDA was and how uncomfortable it was making her. I thought she was joking because of how little we were actually making contact.

I turned and kissed my girlfriend on the cheek and made a loud smack, and that’s where she really lost it. I immediately knew I had to get this on camera, so that’s about where the video picks up.

We tried to stay as calm as possible. I was trying not to engage as I knew this lady was clearly nuts, but when she started calling my girlfriend a slut, whore, etc, and when she stepped closer to her, that’s when I started getting angry.

In retrospect, I’m proud that we didn’t sink to her level or anything like that, but wish I would’ve said some more clever remarks. Oh also, I fucked up by not filming in portrait mode – Sorry about that.
