Sometimes, a hug is all what we need. Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, A man whos sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives.
In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal.
As this symbol of human hope spread accross the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity come together in what can only be described as awe inspiring.
In the Spirit of the free hugs campaign, PASS THIS TO A FRIEND and HUG A STRANGER! After all, If you can reach just one person...
Hugging causes global warming, kills snail darters, threatens the spotted owl, depletes ozone, and has been linked to tooth decay. shameful stuff, that hugging.
C'mon, srsly! Hugs are cool!

haha I did see that on the news, cute

explain global warming then. did you read about the hikers on mount hood who fell off an ice ledge and survived by hugging to stay warm! Dangerous thing to just go around hugging all willy nilly, with no regard to the future of this planet. I give out cold pricklies, not warm fuzzies! Save the whales!!!! SAVE YOURSELF!!!!

Hugging strangers is weird. I think that guy needs to get a job.
Is it? Imagine the friends you could make.

It would be easier to just buy a boat.
But not cheaper.
Boat friends like you for what you have. Lose the boat, lose the friends. Hug friends are forever.

:D :p
Seriously. You won't know how many friends you have until people find out you have a boat. :rolleyes:
Boats help ease global warming. All that spilled beer cools things off. Aquatic free hugs are okay, as the water keeps the heat down too.
Okay, who wants a hug on my boat? :p

Hey! Where's my wallet?!
Actually if it were me doing that, I would be a little smarter. I would put FREE HUGS on one side of the sign and then I HAVE AIDS on the other side. Then I would only display the FREE HUGS sign to hawt chicks.

That's awesome. I'm seriously considering going out and doing it on my campus.

Yea I was thinking I should do that. I'll bring Siu. Well... I'll hold the sign and she can laugh from afar. But I definitely think it would be cool.

I love hugs! :)
I think its a neat concept. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable hugging just anybody though.

That's awesome. I'd hug that dude, I'm secure enough with myself. I had a conversation with a friend of mine awhile back about the lack of touch in modern society, especially if you're single and/or not living near family. We started keeping track of daily touch (hugs, handshakes, high 5's, etc.) to see how much contact we were getting. The results were surprisingly low (some days as low as accidental touch getting change at the store). We wanted to stand on two of the busiest corners on campus and offers hugs just to see who would take us up on it and how they would react, but it never happened (too much school work). Being an attractive female, I think she would have won, afterall, who wouldn't hug a good looking young woman? I think most American men are too homophobic to hug another guy, especially a stranger, and young women might be a little cautious hugging a strange guy. Maybe this spring...

Exactly what I was thinking.
Hey I'd hug another guy. Hugs are just hugs, it's not like anyone is using their toungue to analyze the other person's dentalwork or anything...

Of course I'd keep my clothes on.
Meh, I'd have no problem hugging a dude. I'd rather hug a female, but either way not a big deal.

Okay, I'm having a problem seeing the downside here . . . . ;)
I think collecting free hugs would be easy. Show me somebody that charges for them and still collects a lot and I'll be impressed.

Did anyone ever see that Jackass where Johnny Knoxville put brown poo looking mud all over his shirt and walked around giving everyone free hugs? Some people actually went for it. I wouldn't hug a guy with poo on his shirt.
