The current explanation seems to suggest that Cueball sent <nowiki>"*hug*"</nowiki> and is replacing the word with him hugging Megan in his mind. However it is more probable to me that the messenger program interprets words enclosed in asterisks to be a kind of markup that inserts a picture or emoticon, and <nowiki>"*hug*"</nowiki> corresponds to a image of two people hugging. --[[User:Troy0|Troy0]] ([[User talk:Troy0|talk]]) 04:39, 25 July 2014 (UTC) | The current explanation seems to suggest that Cueball sent <nowiki>"*hug*"</nowiki> and is replacing the word with him hugging Megan in his mind.

| β | Around 2007 or so when this comic was posted, MSN Messenger (WLM) had a feature where you can draw messages rather than just type them. I think this simply refers to making a drawing rather than simply typing *hug*. See also: google image search for "msn messenger drawing".
