Unfortunately this was a real conversation….not to mention a really bad idea. The conversation went something like this:
Holiday- Do you want me to come over and give you a hug?
(A little light came on above my head.)
Me- Ya know, I think if a person can order up a pizza over the phone or online they should also be able to order a hug online or over the phone.
Holiday- We could start a hugging business. They could call us and we’d drive over and give them a hug.
Me- Yeah, we could charge like twenty bucks per hug.
Holiday- Then charge extra for stuff like rubbing their back while we hug and other false expressions of sympathy. And there should be a time limit on the hug or that’s extra too.
Me- Would this make us call girls, hugging hoes of some sort?
(silence)
Me- Yeah, we might want to re-think this idea.
Something about being a twenty dollar hugging ho just didn’t set right with me. Back to the drawing board I go for a get rich quick scheme.

Okay, I had to admit that this post made me laugh out loud. I can totally see my friend and I having the same conversation!
