Actress Alyssa Milano of “Who’s the Boss?” and “Melrose Place” tweeted an electronic group hug Tuesday in which she encouraged everyone to “get in.”
Well, maybe not everyone.
After the post had collected thousands of “likes” and hundreds of retweets, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) decided to “get in” on the fun. He retweeted Milano, adding his own caption: “We all need a hug!” He also included a winking face emoji, which according to Urban Dictionary, “is used as a way to convey the playful sentiment in a medium, such as text, where emotions can’t otherwise be displayed. Depending on the context, it can be flirtatious, but usually denotes joking.”
