The thing that makes "cuddle parties" et al such a bummer is what a poorly veiled attempt they are on the part of sad, horny losers to get physical with girls without it seeming like it's a sexual thing. The thing that makes the Hug Me Club such a bummer is that we are 97.6667% certain that its founder and sole current member, Kacper, had absolutely nothing sexual in mind when he decided to get it started. That and the fact that they have a "grant program" for people who can't afford a $4 hug bracelet.
