Why do people make the “smooching” noise when kissing? It seems like it takes at least a little intentional effort to make that noise. Is it weird to make out but not make the noise?

    Gargling to rinse your mouth requires almost no noise. The gargle noise is 100% voluntary and unnecessary.

    That’s not true. If you want to get some of the medicine to the back part of your throat, that’s why you gargle loudly, to keep it from continuing down your throat and accidentally swallowing it. If you only worry about around the teeth, you don’t.
