“I want to move our relationship to the next level.
. I want you to kiss me,”
Oh. That. Whew…
She closed her eyes and puckered her lips and waited... And waited. And waited.
“No,” Dan replied.
Lois winced. “Get out!” How dare he? He had been throwing himself at her for weeks now, only to suddenly withdrawal?

There’re a lot of unflattering titles waiting for Lois. None are suitable for public use.
“She could be a clone.”
“Do you think she was brainwashed?”
“Possible, Jimmy. Possible.”
“Hypnotized?”
“Or maybe that toe-dragging boyfriend of hers finally got around to remembering that she’s a woman and that he’s a man.”
Perry bounced his eyebrows at her. “So, Lois, you and Scardino have fun this weekend?”
She rolled her eyes. “No comment.”
Oh dear! The Hokey-Pokey!
“Lois Lane and Dan Scardino finally kissed. Who had this weekend in the pool?”
Would it be called stuffing the polls if Lois raised her hand?
