47. I don't know about this hugging stuff

Sat Sep 12, 2015, 06:15 PM

Sep 2015

aspies are not all that comfortable with physical contact, and attractive women are not all that eager to give a hug to ken the monster, much less get one.

But I will knr a Bravenak appreciation thread.

BTW did you know that YT still does NOT have any videos of Ken the Monster?

Poor Ken, he just cannot get any love. He's gone and forgotten. In the words of EOR 'that's what would happen'.

The letter writer must LOVE the attention the letters is causing on the DU. nt Logical Sep 2015 #72

I doubt the anonymous letter writer expected Bravenak to go public. pnwmom Sep 2015 #73

I bet the writer is a POS who loves the attention. Disruption the DU. nt Logical Sep 2015 #74

It's not causing any disruption. It's actually bringing people together. pnwmom Sep 2015 #76

We disagree on this. nt Logical Sep 2015 #79
