That's your answer to everything. Natural disaster? Hugs are better. Riots? Hugs are better. Terrorism? Hugs are better. Apocalypse & armageddon? Hugs are better.

What I'm trying to say here: why are you right all the time?

For the trivial failures to be outweighed, you first need to have at least one great success. Better get to it, DesAnges. Time is ticking away.
