I love how quirky Lansing is. I mean, say what you will, but the city has character.

One of the things that gives it this character are the people in it and the hilarious stuff they come up with.

If you have a Facebook page, you live in/love Lansing, and could always use a good laugh, I highly suggest you follow the Lansing Facts page.

In a newer post to their Facebook page, Lansing Facts put up a very tongue-in-cheek (pun intended) picture asking "what if we kissed at the Mount Frandor Scenic Overlook?"

Necking on the hill behind Frandor has to be peak Lansing behavior.

But, kissing while watching Lansing residents poorly navigate the hellscape that is the Frandor parking lot really got me thinking...

The Official Lansing Make-Out Guide

So here it is: a comprehensive list of all the "best" places to kiss in Lansing

In the shadow of Big Penny

Big Penny is the affectionate nickname that Lansing has given to a short bridge that goes over Pennsylvania Avenue. The bridge is so short that it often "eats" too tall trucks that attempt to pass underneath it. The picture shows a weathered, concrete railroad bridge that has been decorated with giant googly eyes and sharp, fang-like teeth, to give it the appearance of a monster.

Because nothing gets you in the mood quite like seeing if that truck is going to make clearance or have its top taken off.

Under the watchful eye of the Meijer Giraffe

The Meijer Giraffe is a beloved Lansing fixture. The picture is of a statue of a giraffe sitting in a parking lot.

Kissing under the Meijer Giraffe is good luck, like kissing under mistletoe.

Along the banks of the Red Cedar

Red Cedar River, located in East Lansing Michigan, notable for going through the campus of Michigan State University. This picture shows a river from the perspective of standing on a bridge that goes over the river. There are trees lining the banks of the river.

If you love long walks along the banks of a slightly polluted river, this is the make out spot for you.

In the parking lot of Nip N Sip

Nip N Sip is an institution of a Lansing restaurant. It's been around for decades, doesn't have a website, and is cash only. Locals love the Hammy Sammy. Nip N Sip serves up burgers, fries, sandwiches, shakes and more. This picture shows the outside of the restaurant, its parking lot, and a red sign with white letters that reads, Nip N Sip.

Just slip an onion ring on my finger and tell me I'm pretty.

Just make sure you watch out for foul balls. No one wants to get a concussion during a make out session.

Is there truly a more iconic place to neck than in a park behind some smokestacks? I think not...

10 Things Every Lansing Kid Did Growing Up In The 90's

It's crazy to think that the 90's were 35 years ago. Is that now considered retro, or just classic? For comparison, 1999 is now as far in the past as 1974 was in 1999. I don't like that... let me grab my Capri Sun and have a moment please.
