Introducing the 1st Annual International Hug A Hater Week

We hereby declare December 17-23, 2006 to be International Hug A Hater Week. Rather than carry our hostility toward the haters with us into another new year, let's just take the week before Christmas to forgive them, and share a little love. Carefully.

This idea came from an email exchange I had with Curt344. He suggested the campaign saying, 'Responding to "you suck" and "die of AIDS" comments with more hostility doesn't work, so I say let's try another approach. Sort of a "kill them with kindness" thing, ya know?'

(UPDATE: Curt's changed his name to OhCurt) Visit Curt at:

Join the Hug A Hater Campaign! Make a Hug A Hater video and post it here as a response before or during International Hug A Hater Week, December 17-23!
