That would make school SUCK. Some people in my class would have peacock tails 8:45 to 4:00…

But it would take up to a year for the paperwork to clear.
On the upside, married people would be set as long as they kept their focus in the general direction of their spouse.
Spouse: “You were ignoring me again!”
Bored Person: “No honey, I swear! I was just so caught up in your good looks I instinctively put on a mating display!”
