It is time for an alternative greeting vs. shaking Hands
As James Woods tweeted, the custom of shaking hands is a bit outdated, since we no longer have to worry if the person you are meeting has a broadsword behind their back, perhaps it's time for a custom change

It's Chinese? No, thanks.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

sarc on/ I thought the traditional Chinese greeting was to dust each other with lead-infused melamine? sarc off/ Being serious for a femtosecond, I kind of like the foot thing.

I am scheduled to attend a conference in 2 weeks that draws attendees from all over the world. The meeting has been designated a "no handshake" event. I wish they would just cancel it.

Hedley Lamarr: Wait, wait, wait. I'm unarmed. Bart: Alright, we'll settle this like men, with our fists. Hedley Lamarr: Sorry, I just remembered . . . I am armed.

I do fist bumps. Since I do not lick my nuckles, I should be fine.
