Yeah About a Hug's Worth

Think about it: If a kid is trying to measure their mood or love with their arms, saying "I love you this much" or "more than this much" it's an actual unit of measurement! If someone says "my love for you is unfathomable" they're saying "my love for you is more than which an embrace can convey." Sailors literally talk by saying "yeah this square knot takes about six hugs of rope" The words "fathom" "unfathomable" "fathomless" all relate to hugs! We have been measuring length in hugs for 5 centuries! I think that's beautiful.

I've edited my previous post because... none of the songs last between 7 and 8 minutes, so what the hell was Die talking about hah? Maybe 6+ deferred to 7 in his mind...
