the Hug Theory Find similar topicfind similar  
     01/04/05 02:19 AM

On the Monday of falmouth, whilst most people were packing up MintSauce, Tao Star, Rossco Bossco and Me (if i remember correctly) developed the "Hug Theory"

This is, that if you walk up to someone, with your arms open, your body and head slightly tilted - they will hug you,

Now we instantly field tested this theory, on the unsuspecting victims... uh i mean... spinners:
Bovril Monkey
Simian
2bags
Mags
and PyroWill.
It worked.

Therefore, I recommend everyone going out and trying it on strangers on the street and telling me how it worked.

also, the more huggable the person, the less you have to angle your arms. for those who often avoid hugs, more of a swooping action is recommended...

I don't think it works outside fluffy-hippy land

Many folk don't like making eye contact when you just smile at them in the street let alone touching a stranger
