That's not a happy comment. Enough derail.
Heh.
but anyway, this happened a few weekends ago, but, I wanted to bring it up because I was just thinkin about it then and it made me happy, so it kind of fits in the topic. Righto, so, my best mate and I, known eachother since our language was gurgle, all that, whatever. When we were in grade six on an excursion, we decided to say 'gday' to randoms on the street, just to show how much balls we had. Which was a big thing to an eleven year old. Anyway, as it happens, the tradition stuck, so we've just kept on doing more and more bold things to randoms on the street. For seven years. I bet we've made (and ruined) a lot of people's days. But hanyway. When we were walking around Southbank (Brisbane) (A major city in Australia), we decided that Brisbane didn't have enough love. So we started hugging people. Sometimes random, sometimes offered - Whatever. It was great. We got heaps of hugs from groups of chicks, because we'd just walk into the middle and say 'give a stranger a hug!'
Surprisingly effective.
But anyway, The high point of my day was when we were walking back home, and I came across a hobo-looking character sitting near the sidewalk. So, I randomly walk over to him, (After throwing mac my wallet & phone, pays to be safe), and go 'Hey, Wanna random hug?' And he was all like 'Uh... Yeah, whatever.' And we hugged. And he smelt like piss. Not the bad kind of piss. Booze piss. Kinda both. He smelt horrible, who cares. But it was awesome anyway. And I just gave him a grin and said 'seeya later mate' and left. And he looked really happy. And kind of confused. And drunk.
Heh.
But yeah, hugs are always nice. But, there are two kinds of hugs that I cannot compare to the 'standard' hug.
1. People who look like they really need something nice to happen in their day. (They give surprisingly good hugs)
2. Group hugs from Ten-or-more, sixteen year-old chicks. (Boobs. Perfume. 'awww'. x10)
so yeah, that made my day, just thinking about it.
