Free Hugs community..

[purpleorb]

Some lovely person has started this free_huggles community, for people to post art (so naturally I posted my latest watercolour) or stories about giving out free hugs or generally cheering people up. Say it with me now! Awwwwwwww..

Big softie you are :P

[purpleorb]

God, I really am. For someone who paints pictures that provoke death threats, I really am just a big squishy thing at heart.

[kharysma]

Uh huh, but i could tell that meeting you :-)

Death threats????

[purpleorb]

Yes ma'am! Not just any old death threats either.. A guy told me I should kill myself because I painted 'Better off mute' (the one where I'm in the shower bleeding from the mouth).

It was actually a compliment.. simply because I painted it in the hope people would react strongly to it, and there is nothing quite so strong as that sort of vicious behaviour!

I just thought ... next time we go a-hugging, you should wear that bunny suit thing in your avatar/profile.

i agree
the only thing better than a free hug is a free hug from a giant bunny

[purpleorb]

Everyone I know who's seen (and hugged) me in the bunny suit says the same thing..
Right after they say 'OMG! What the hell are you doing in a bunny suit?!'

[purpleorb]

Seriously, I was going to.. But the suit is really warm (it's my winter suit) and since it was hot on Monday I knew I'd pass out from heat exhaustion before I barely got in a hug..
Come winter time, I'll be in the suit and hugging like a mad person for sure!

*big cuddly hug*

generally cheering people up? that seems to be my mission these days. I shall join later today (multitasking right now) f

[purpleorb]

So that means you're feeling better now? HOORAH!
*huggles*

[roadkillroy]

Is there a reason you don't have a Deviant Art page?

[purpleorb]

Um... I'm chronically lazy?

I should really get one, shouldn't I?
I might do it later tonight, when the late shift starts to drag...

[roadkillroy]

That's fine. Peggy has one and she never posts anything on it...

[purpleorb]

I did it! purpleorb at deviantart is me. I've only uploaded the stuff I've already painted and shown on here, though.
