We do use heavy doses of sarcasm, satire and silliness around here. No it is not meant to be entirely serious. We do use heavy doses of sarcasm, satire and silliness around here.

Just wanted to add that I had no idea that there could possibly be any meaning behind circle or pats other than just offering comfort or to give encouragement...like a pat on the back used to mean! Guess for the single folks things have different meanings. 1 Great site.

A wonderful lady I go to church with uses the her over me under hug and most of the time her collarbone catches me in the neck like a clothesline. I'm sure some folks have seen my strained expression during one of those hugs and it is embarrasing. A huggin fan who comes from a hugging family... I 've never experienced anything like this before. Has anyone else? Duh and why haven't I said something to her....thats the real question. Wow.

My favorite church hug is like the A- Frame but with only one arm. For me hugging is the most awkward thing ever so if I can do it with minimal touching, it's a great day!

"oh I missed your big ole teddy bear hugs!" <br /><br />I guess I just have a gift! what can I say! I don't know what it is but people always go for my teddy bear hugs.
