Drive by Hugging

More like walk by hugging, but it doesn't have the ring to it. I have decided to do this in honor of the Dada/surreal nature of this wonderful world. I see Glitch as an unscripted play which  I am going  to make it weirder. I invite you to do the same with strange actions such as the drive by hugging. 

As an aside, I am uncertain if such ways of Glitchy beingness has been performed, so please do not beat me over the head with a trout or verbally bash me softly or stoutly. If you have been fighting the weird fight all along, I commend thee, and ask that we join forces.

Back on topic: A drive by hugging is where you just run up to someone, hug them and run away either without saying anything or for shats and giggles saying something like Drive by hugging, or some other absurd phrasing. Keep on keeping it weird Folks.

  • I hug random Glitchen all the time. I also like to give them ice cubes.

  • I commend thee. I walked around and handed out onion seeds the other day saying Happy Un-halloween. It was a gas!

  • I am a drive by GNG-musicblocker. Not always though, and if people move too fast away I can't manage to do it.
    Also, I sneak up on people mining, help mine, and then hug and play Goodnight Groddle :)

  • Yesteday I did a "drive by hug" (love the term BTW) but I was chased home and hugged back! How about that for devotion to hugging!

    I have been trying to be more vigilant about giving lower level players a few sammiches. To the point where I am a bit disappointed when I click on "info" and find they are a level 22! I see now I need to keep a supply of silly items (such as ice cubes) to give out to the higher levels when I stumble across them looking forlorn.

    But maybe Nanookie has the right idea - cocktails are always welcome :)

  • Sometimes all we need is one hug from a complete stranger.

    Thanks for doing this.

  • I'm a big fan of DBH -- both giving and getting. :)

  • I like your mind, Rev! I also propose more dirt-giving and tater-dropping.

    But, yes, players should find ways to add to the silly, wonderful world of Ur!

  • I have to admit I am rather partial to drive by splankings. Also random gifts to afk people is always fun. Lol.

  • He he he.  Last night I drive-by-splanked Stoot.  It was fun.  Blanky was there too and she got a hug.  Then I ran away to another street.

  • I do random hugs and gift giving that all the time and walk away without saying a word usually.  (Unless I'm giving away an Earthshaker to a lower level player, then I tell them to drink it before they mine.)  Hugging and receiving random wonderful gifts by glitchen walking by was done to me a lot before the reset, I just figured it's a part of the social culture of being a glitch, so I continue the tradition.  :-D

  • Such a wonderful community!

  • Reba, that's very nice of you! Someone gave me an Earthshaker yesterday. So I gave her a Flaming Humbaba drink. I love how nice most of Glitchens.

  • Nanookie- How bizarre, keep it up!

    Kookaburra - Cool bird BTW, and really good soft Licorice. Anywho, I also find myself being disappointed when I discover the higher ranking players. I went on a purple flower power walk about last night and was handing them out like candy. 'twas fun!

    Crifmer - Super! There are oodles of oddlies it appears.

    Jobynana - There is more than just leveling up in life and in glitch.

    Emdot - Keep up the odd work. DBH the world.

    Maria - I will be sure to DBH you if I see you!

    Shipwreck - Dirtgiving and Tater dropping. Will do!

    Draren - I have been splanking and it is great fun. Thank you for that.

    Reba - I caught the bug, and I want to spread it.

    Talis - Agreed!

    Lala - isn't it grand?

  • I like keeping an eye on some of the basic action icons I see people using like cookery or other crafting things, and when I have basic materials for them, popping a few of them into peoples's bags. I'm in it to develop harvesting, so if you need something send a message to me.
