Armistead Maupin Quote

The menu at the Hug Deli included, among other items, the Warm and Fuzzy Hug, the Beverly Hills Air Kiss Hug, and the Gangsta Hug, with side orders of Pinch, Tickle, and Back Scratch. She ordered the Long Uncomfortable Hug, because she thought that was funny, thereby prompting a nut-brown Venice Beach-looking dude to hold on to her, earnestly pokerfaced, for a seeming eternity. Are you uncomfortable yet?Fairly, yes.Excellent. My work here is done.She laughed and mounted on her bike, pedalling away from the zany mirage as her gratuitous hugger shouted Namaste in her direction.
