How do I make people learn that hugs are warm?

speaking of pillow pets I was talking to my friend once over skype and his mom went in, grabbed a pillow pet, and said "this is Liam's pillow pet"

Cold actually does the exact opposite.

You must cause a tragic accident that kills off most of your surrounding peers, then when lost in a forest naked you will huddle together and then they will understand the warmth.

invite them to go star gazing then pop a roofie in their drink and hug them overnight.

if they question it ask if they'd rather have hypothermia or a sore star fish

If anything, it brings more attention.

Attention comes in two varieties.

I do.

And after the first week or so, nobody seems to care that I have a pillow-pet anymore. Aside from a few people singing the jingle when they're by me.

Let me speak from personal experience when I tell you that it's very obvious to most people when you're doing something deliberately to seek attention from your peers. If people see that you're carrying around children's toys to get attention, they will immediately jump to the conclusion that you are desperate for attention and, by extension, weird. The end result is that they ignore you, either involuntarily or deliberately.

I could actually do this.

No worries, XR-7, I won't. But I could.

Really, though, in my group of friends we don't have any no-hug no-touch rules. We bear hug, side hug, slam hug, normal hug, "chokehold," tackle, lean on each when going around curves in a car (hey, it's fun), use each other as backrests/pillows, and even sneak-attack tickle each other's sides into orbit.

My tip? Get closer to some of those friends you mentioned, if you want a hug. Break down the mental blocks, and you'll more than likely break down the physical ones too. Just... try not to be creepy about it. One of my friends does the creepy-guy thing with me, it's pretty... interesting at times. XD

My school doesn't really question anything. Sometimes I wear my bright red furry ears to school and I don't even get any weird looks.

I think like 4 people in my school wear animal ears. This fairly short girl (Not midget status, just short.) wears cat ears from time to time and it's SO loving CUT

phone + bathroom = ???

I do not have money for smartphone ownership, or any kind of phone ownership for that matter.

You must cause a tragic accident that kills off most of your surrounding peers, then when lost in a forest naked you will huddle together and then they will understand the warmth.

As of right now, this stands as plan V to get hugs.

This thread is approaching critical levels of 'school-shooter'

I can't really give you social advice if you're not willing to take it.
