True story: In Philadelphia there is a Chinese Restaurant that has a post it note below its menu reading 60 cents BIG HUG.

My story: Did I ask for a hug when i went there? No. Did I use the idea to k-close a girl in Philly. Yes. Its not lying its flirting.

To set: Hey do you think 60 cents is too expensive for a big hug?
HB or Obstacle: Huh?
Demarest: Well I was in this Chinese place off -insert road in your town here- and there was this note below the menu saying 60 cent big hug... PAUSE
HB: Uh-huh
DM: So me being a decently social person and liking hugs asked for one after ordering General Tsao chicken, the lady comes from behind the counter and gives me the weakest hug, *DEMONSTRATE weak hug, on obstacle if two-set, while smiling touch her shoulder and pat her back wealky with 'wtf' look on face*. That is NOT a big hug.
HB: laughs
DM: Like when i think of a big hug i think of how i hug a loved one or someone i havent seen in a long time *DEMONSTRATE BIG HUG ON HB, squeeze and lift her*
HB COMPLIANCE TEST
Put her down, be like THATS WORTH 60 CENTS, right? If she asks what happens, say you didnt pay and got kicked out!

Upon further field-testing, not sure if this should be an opener or used at A3/C1, got k-close at parties, not that useful thus far at clubs

luv it thankss.... gonna try this one..

love it.. thats brilliant

Great story, but if you're going to use it as an opener I reccommend giving the big hug to another one of the obstacles. At the opening stage, you probably haven't built enough attraction to warrant IOIs from the target unless you're heavily peacocked or you've already demonstrated a lot of social proof in the club, etc. Giving both hugs to obstacles creates jealousy that will get you IOIs from the target eventually.

But as an A2 piece, it sounds like magic

Thats really good. I wouldn't use it as an opener, but for sure during attraction.
