It's back!
Do you like the holidays? Do you like giving people stuff? Do you like receiving stuff? Are you too poor or paranoid for the Frunty card exchange (love you guys <3)? Well, you're in luck, because Warm Fuzzies is here!
Now I'm pretty sure everyone knows what Warm Fuzzies is by now. But in short:
1) People sign up
2) People write compliments (called "fuzzies") to everyone else on the sign up list
3) ?? Anonymization time ??
4) Everyone receives their fuzzies on the holidays!

Here are some guidelines on how to write warm fuzzies (which should be at least as warm as the average soup temperature, and less warm than a dying star)
1. Warm fuzzy compliments should be substantial. That means no "you're cool I guess" or "you r sexy" type comments. "You're funny" is a little better, but still not exactly what we're aiming for. Try to make your fuzzies specific--you think a person is funny, but why do you think they're funny? Something like "Dear X, I like your Y because Z" is more in the ballpark. As a general rule of thumb, try to show and not tell. Be thoughtful.
2. Warm fuzzy compliments should be positive. They're warm fuzzies, not acerbic boiling fuzzies.
3. If you don't know a person enough to write something thoughtful about them, you can PM them or look at their posts to see what they're like. Just... within reason.
4. Fuzzies will take a lot of time to write, so pace yourself. Write maybe one or two a day.
