Because to me, it's completely silly. There is another side that allows for you to be both very intimate and comfortable. It's not like you're so far away from someone that you can't, and if you're sitting face to face, you can stare up at them without it being awkward or having to turn and face them while trying to eat at the same time. When I see it, all I can think of is the couple both having to twist their necks every which way and then blowing their stinky food breath on each other just because they are both so clingy that they can't spend a meal time sitting across vs. next to one another. I feel like it's almost childish in a way because you're not allowing each other to literally have any space. That being said, I will add that maybe I find this so uncomfortable myself because I'm left handed and sitting next to anyone that is right handed unless I'm sitting on the inside of the booth or whatever else is a pain in the ass. Maybe this is why I find it annoying to sit next to someone when there is more space available by default.

Realistically, my Tweets are mostly either overly exaggerating my thoughts or whatever else because I try to find a way to make them interesting so they're not run of the mill. This was one of them. While I very clearly am not on Team 'Sit on the Same Side of the Booth', it's not like I'm going to stop being someone's friend if they chose to. It's just my opinion. :)
