Nerves Are the Pits
The Scene: At church, Nic and Richard are in a small group sitting in a circle. Nic is sitting in between a girl he doesn't know and Richard.
Preacher: Everyone hold hands with the people in your group.
[Richard turns to the girl beside him and reaches for both of her hands, while Nic reaches out his right hand to the middle of the circle. The girl stares blankly at Richard and he quickly turns back. Everyone stares blankly at Nic and he pulls his hand back.]
Girl: [Giggles and whispers to Nic] Aaannd break, go team!
[Nic chuckles then proceeds to hold her hand and Richard's hand as per heterosexual instructions.]
Preacher: [Politely makes demands of God] ...in Jesus name, Amen.
[Nic leans over to the girl next to him and speaks loud enough for the group to hear.]
Nic: Sorry my hand was so sweaty.
Girl: Oh no, it--
Nic: If it makes you feel better, it's from my armpit.
Richard: What?
Preacher: Everyone hold hands with the people in your group.

Huge Birds
Richard: So bad news... I accidentally grabbed a clown suit this morning instead of the suit I'm supposed to wear. I'm so embarrassed... well, someone will be.
Nic: Are you sure people will notice a difference?
Richard: Did I mention this clown suit actually looks like a giant middle finger?
Nic: How is that different than the suit you planned on wearing? Wait... is it a giant middle finger or a giant penis?
Richard: Regardless of the similarities, Nic, I'm fairly certain I can distinguish between giant middle fingers and giant penises. For one, giant penises are always black.

Richard: "9947"
Nic: "9948"
Richard: "4499"

Raising Awareness
Unlike the barbarians populating the rest of this planet, We Like Hugs takes the first of April very seriously. Most see this day as a day to let loose, relax, and have fun, but We Like Hugs sees it as an unavoidable opportunity. In the midst of endless jokes and pranks, that which is serious stands far taller and speaks much louder than on any other day. The obligation to utilize this advantageous anniversary is undeniable and irresistible. Therefore, We Like Hugs would like to use this open door to raise awareness of the depressing realization that women aren't funny. Thus, We Like Hugs invites our community to indulge us in what can be done about it or simply to join in our expression of concern. While a discussion is in line here, do not limit yourself. Don't be afraid to spread awareness out from this site. Together we can make a difference.
