[Error: unknown template qotd]Once, I received a hug from a child in McDonalds.  She did not know me, just came and hugged & kissed me, then ran away.  It was kinda cute, but in this day & age you can't just have kids do that!

There was another incident where I was visiting a college campus (Rutgers) for Earth Day.  I did not know the guy at all, and just took a chicken finger from his platter he held out.  Weird, it's not the kinda thing I normally do, but what I remembered about college was that college students felt completely comfortable to express their feelings / emotions in public in a way not nearly as accepted by society.

McDonalds' food does strange things to kids, indeed.

Yeah in this case it was excitement.....normally it just makes kids irritable grouchy and obese after prolonged use.

You are too funny! If that was the case she picked the wrong girl. I was, and still am, broke.
