This thread is spot on. I just don’t get where people figured out how to shake hands.

I replied with “don’t worry this isnt the superbowl”

When somebody gives me a FGGT handshake I usually throw in the middle finger tickle to show them how gay they really are.

I always try to deliver a manly handshake but sometimes the other guy will close his hand too soon without me getting the correct grip for a firm shake and then it’s so embarrassing I contemplate castrating myself.

**Edit:** Just read the same complaints on page 1!

DEAD FISH IS THE WORST.

Firm handshakes is where it’s at. Unless you’re super firm, and break my god damn little girl hand.

I’m a fan of a very firm handshake but it should also come with eye contact as well. A guy I used to work with actually broke one of the metacarpels (sp.) in another guys hand because he shook very very hard and the other guy shook like a pussy…lol

hahaha that’s embarassing

and +1 for eye contact, I’ve gotten a lot of cook jobs with no application just with a firm handshake and confident eye contact

when I ran a small restaurant and had to hire some people, anyone with a weak handshake was humored then sent on their way
