A confession. It’s true, I’m a sucker for hugs. Ask my friends, they’ll tell you. Not all of them. But the ones that go red in the face and smile at the very thought of me hugging them. Its true there are a few out there, but that fact of the matter is that they are there. And, to set the record straight, this one is for them.
The inspiration. This year clearly began on Ostrich wings and yet I’m not complaining openly. But, something absurdly eye-opening happened in the beginning of this year. It wasn’t all hunky and dory for everyone but something unique came out of all the slurry-slush mud-wash.
The idea. You’ve heard of the bear hug, butt-hug, friendly hug, group hug, pat on the back, sympathy hug, tree hug, snuggle hug and the list goes on. Now, I introduce to you, my very own “Aunty Uncle Hug” – Yep! Its real and it works. Although, I would test it on a close friend (with prior permission, unlike me) and spread it like a virus.
Technical Specification. The Aunty Uncle Hug is a bear hug in physical form but in meaning it loosely translates into no obligations no strings attached. You can throw one around strangers at clubs (be down a few beers and you’re ready), in the park (if you’re an old fellow), at the stadium (other fans), during weddings and even the workplace (unless you work at the bank).
Statutory Warning. Hell, you could even throw one on a cow off the street (had you any love for animals in the first place). But if I were you I would be careful hugging cows, they get the wrong idea.
