So, I got this email with a YouTube video titled Free Hugs. I was actually touched when I saw total strangers hugging each other with varying levels of emotion and intensity. Unfortunately, my sense of "social yucky" set in and made me think about the creepers in the world.
My thought process went a little something like this: Aw, that's so sweet...Wait a minute, what if I was out there with a free hugs sign and some obvious creeper walked up to collect? Am I supposed to embrace this repulsive, smelly, possibly criminal person? Is that false advertising if I don't? What if we're mid embrace and his hands wander? The video only shows the successes and I suppose it's a good message. I just really want to see the outtakes! No hugs for the creepers!
