I actually hug the shit out of everyone I meet these days. I didn't used to hug that much but now I show up at a dinner with 12 people like last Saturday and I greeting hug everyone first thing!
I think Chronovore inspired me tbh, I was at Treesong's wedding years back and I met Chrono for the first time and he gave the most welcoming hug ever and right off the bat I knew he was a good guy. So that is probably part of how I got into hug greeting everyone. Hugs are cool.
