There was a recent publication about a study that rated the “effectiveness” of hugs. For some reason, the study started with women hugging. For very valid scientific reasons, the women had to be blindfolded. The conclusion was that people enjoyed hugs that were not too short and that graduate students like to see blindfolded women hugging.
Snakes love to hug Peter, it makes them feel warm and fuzzy inside. It also tenderizes Peter and makes him easy to swallow. Peter is considered a fine meal.

Fear causes certain muscles to suddenly relax. Feel good, it ain’t.

Just don’t try telling the snake that it all joke. They just don’t have any legs for you to pull.

I wish that all I had to do is hug a tree to get a dose of oxycontin …

Oxytocin is more about pregnancy and lactation. I learned about those things when my wife worked in post-partum.

Not my wife. She doesn’t like to be touched by anyone. Hugging? No way.

a small but vital difference between “hugging” and “squeezing”

Then why is the first reaction a slap. Shouldn’t women at least wait a few moments to see if that oxytocin thing kicks in.

I knew that Oxytocin induces labor and breast milk. I didn’t know it was the “feel good” hormone. I learned something new today.

Shouldn’t there be a saber-toothed tiger in today’s strip? It’s all about a feel-line.
