An airport in New Zealand has limited hugging in its drop-off zone to a maximum of three minutes - with anyone wanting a longer goodbye told to head for the car park.
Dunedin International Airport, on New Zealand’s South Island, announced the rule change last month as part of a broader effort to improve safety and keep traffic flowing in the zone, local media reported.
Signs have gone up informing people sending off their loved ones that the new rule is “Max hug time three minutes” or “It’s hard to say goodbye so make it quick. 3 minutes max”.
They replaced the previous signs which only reminded drivers that cars left unattended would risk being clamped and charged NZ$70, Stuff reported.
You apparently missed this part of my post:
I’ve been married 24 years, how about you?
I think he meant to reply to the other person
No i meant to reply to FlyingSquid. They said 3 minutes is too long to hug a pillow. But my point is if you’re going away for a long time 3 minutes with your wife and kids doesn’t even begin to be enough.
I’m not sure why I thought that
I am married 4 years and even I think 3 minutes is not enough. How do you recon you are fine with 3 minutes? Its nothing when you have to be away for a long time… unless you’re used to this kind of lifestyle then I can understand that you and your loved ones are used to it.
Because 3 minutes is a really long time to hug someone?
My god, you’re a monster.
