Nope :) It's canon!

The story:
Back in high school there was some be-happy-friendly type camp thing
sponsored by the school district. All the participants were given an angora
thread as a "Warm Fuzzy". When you wanted to give someone kudos, you put the
Fuzzy over their head like a lei, and said some gofy thing about why you're
giving them your Warm Fuzzy.

When you pissed someone off by being rude or crass or whatever, they called
it a Cold Prickly, and any Warm Fuzzies you had accrued were returned to
their owners, or perhaps given to ther person you annoyed.

Looking back on it now it sounds like a schoolyard psychology experiment -
and oh, so very wrong...
