Warm fuzzy thread, for those who might need it today.
A giraffe at the zoo decided to do the same thing (as the adult giraffe in the "Also" link) to my head when I was five or six. My mom screamed but I thought it was funny, like having a giant hand pat your head.
One of my Flickr friends, Sachama, has a great warm fuzzy set of her cat, Bubi, up here. It always makes me say "awwww." (Link goes to a Flickr set with several hundred thumbnails, may be painful on dial-up).
Did any one else read the "Warm Fuzzy/ Cold Prickly" books in elementary school? I remember those, but only generally. I always think of them when I hear the term "warm fuzzy." The idea was always simple: be nice (warm fuzzy), not mean (cold prickly).
