I think the "Beg & Plead Fighting Technique" is pretty awesome.

Limpwristed handshaking is disgusting. It's got this creepy, intimate quality to it that repulses me. Blech.

But the "break your friggin hand" handshake by macho, insecure guys really annoys me too.

It shouldn't be hard to reach the middle ground between the limp fish and the terminator squeeze.

Easy rule of thumb for a good handshake; have the web of skin between your thumb and forefinger made solid contact with the other party's reciprocal hand.
Firm grasp, one pump up and down. Done. Then, it's on to business.
You're not gonna be "that guy" with the bad handshake and you won't squeeze them so hard as to cause a grimmace.
They ought to spend a day on this in business colleges.

I believe Donald Trump refuses to shake hands with anybody. Don't know if it's a germ thing or what.

Could be wrong about this but I think it's true.

As far as limp handshakes, yeah, don't like 'em.

I'd rather get the limp-wrist handshake than the hold-on-forever type. Gimme my hand back already, freak!

Shaking hands is for Masons, gays and the blind and since I fall into none of the aforementioned catagories I'll thank you to keep your hands away from me.

The macho handshake has been perfected through years of high-powered business deals. Maybe a little too much in a social setting, but you can't go wrong in a business setting with the hard handshake

there's the hard shake and the crusher. I never knew the difference until the aforementioned stitches were put in.
