a good reporter would have pulled a quote from that last group, because I would find it super-informative as a reader to see a news story containing genuine teenage sneering about this issue, and in general about who thinks they're so cool with their stupid hugging but really they're just dumb jerks

If my junior high students represent the next shock troops of the hug-a-bunch offensive, then it will peter out. btw, let's hope there is never a peter-out offensive.

there was a few months during my sophomore year of high school that i was all about hugging people, including acquaintances i wasn't even that close with. of course there was no trend at the time so it was really just inappropriate. :\
it all ended when my older bro yelled at me to stop hugging people in our (same) chemistry class and i was overcome with shame. :( :( :(
― roman knockwell (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:33 (fifteen years ago) link
i won the chemistry award that year but i'm pretty sure it was not for all the hugging i did.

tell me he was wearing protective goggles at the time
― ice cr?m, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:35 (fifteen years ago) link
it's possible because i think i was hugging my lab partner at the time

i met my girlfriend's friend's boyfriend the other week--he goodbye-hugged me after coffee. i was a little surprised tbh.

I am huggy if you're already a friend and if I really like you. What gets me if when people I've met once and don't really know at all start hugging me goodbye and stuff. I'm not so into that. We just met - we're not at the hugging stage yet!

at what duration does a *hug* become a *cuddle*

Don't cuddles have more hand action?

10 seconds
― Mr. Que, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:47 (fifteen years ago) link
Around the 7 to 8 second mark, I'd say.
― Aimless, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:47 (fifteen years ago) link
after the expiration of the "huggle" zone
― nabisco, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:47 (fifteen years ago) link
cuddles are generally horizontal, or at least sitting down.
― hugging used to mean something (call all destroyer), Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:48 (fifteen years ago) link
i think its when the person starts to rub your back or really any hand/arm mvmnt at all once the hug has been formed
― Lamp, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:48 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah i guess it's a gray area--like i hugged the gf's f (who i've met a bunch of times) but since i just met this guy he's more in the handshake zone. and he's an acquaintance's sig other--who knows if i'm ever gonna see him again?

― Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:49 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah a cuddle is a moving hug
― i like to fart and i am crazy (gbx), Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:50 (fifteen years ago) link
it goes hug - huggle - cuddle - snuggle - "hooking up"
add motion and they are, respectively, hug - feeling up - heavy petting - grope - dry hump
― nabisco, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:50 (fifteen years ago) link
wait, those are backward
hug - feeling up - groping - (something) - dry humping
lol

"grinding on" is somewhere in there
― nabisco, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:51 (fifteen years ago) link
x-post to CAD - Yeah, exactly. You just met and had coffee. It wasn't as if you had some marathon bonding session or went through something traumatic together. In my mind that's definitely still handshake zone.

not yet, but trying

is "feeling up" above the waist and "groping" below?
― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:52 (fifteen years ago) link
also "french kissing" is missing
batters box - first base - second base - third base - sacrifice fly

Dutch Rudder is a good character actor but I don't see how he's relevant
― nabisco, Thursday, 28 May 2009 19:55 (fifteen years ago) link
Dan I would say "feeling up" is just that - feeling or lightly touching whereas "groping" sort of connotes more action. I think both could be used to describe above the waist action but that groping is def more involved.

Hugging isn't mentioned in the bible, so it's only logical that it's getting banned everywhere.
