Unhappy Where have all the hugs gone?

Well? Did Fas take them all when he disappeared? Has the absence Viv's vivaciousness left all us males here hugless? What's happening here, I want my hugs, dammit! Uni's out for the year, and the RL friends I hang out with are disgusting hairy males who'll get belted if they try hugging me anyway (the ones who like that sort of thing get maced instead-been reading Hunter S. Thompson lately), so my hug levels have seen a drastic drop lately.

Someone get CE onto this, we need an urgent scientific investigation into this alarming phenomena...

I agree, I have never once received a hug here. When I first started spamming up the internet back in 1995 I used to get hugs all the time.. And I'm WAY cooler now than I was then, what gives?

if you mean hugs through the internet, then you obviously haven't been to the Heathen Citadel It's like we're all best friends there, maybe you would consider joining

Is that a sales pitch?
I must admit, I have only been here a little while so I'm a bit in the dark about the various factions here.

Nah, I think hugs are boring.
Try Fas (his username is CM now) or Scayde if you want hugs

Hugs are not boring if you're a guy.. Women have no trouble getting them, but men.. It's an ongoing battle. My own wife and daughter withhold hugs sometimes!

PS> @ce, did you get my last pm??

Hmm... well I am far less given to hugs than my sister and partner in crime (aka Scayde), but given that Yule doth approach...

*spreads around hugs*

Well, some would argue I never had "it."

Oh well.. Hey, did you get my PM the other day?
