warm fuzzy
Heartwarming emotional glow
A warm fuzzy is a feeling of comfort, affection, or sentimental pleasure: Seeing the old photos gave me the warm fuzzies.
The term often appears slightly ironic, acknowledging the emotion while keeping it at arm's length.
As an adjective, warm-fuzzy describes things designed to evoke such feelings: a warm-fuzzy holiday commercial.
