Sometimes I shake people's hands when I don't know what the social situation calls for and even though handshakes are kinda the default cultural greeting/parting gesture, it often ends up being super awkward anyway.

    I want a culture where a light humping is the social norm for greeting people.

    And everyone is naked all of the time so that the formalities can get done a lot faster?

    Next time I see you, remind me to show you the book I had to read for my Chinese religion class about Confucius and the “magic” ritual that is handshaking.

    Frank & Markel: Irrefutable proof that we are indeed not living in the best of all possible worlds.

    Lyndsey: awesome, I will!
