I
hate it when a stranger sticks out their hand to me! In my profession it happens on a daily basis! Why do we do this?
Wikipedia: "Some researchers have suggested the handshake may have been introduced in the Western World by Sir Walter Raleigh in service with the British Court during the late 16th century.[2] The handshake is thought by some to have originated as a gesture of peace by demonstrating that the hand holds no weapon."
Okay! I don't carry weapons! And I don't want your germs or the feel of your moist flesh touching mine 
I much prefer patting someone on the back, touching their arm, even a hug!
Just me!

  | Posted Nov 3rd, 2008 at 6:04PM Hehe. Yeah, shaking hands just seems weird and unnatural to me for some reason.   |
 | Posted Dec 13th, 2008 at 9:59PM I hate shaking hands. There's the bone crusher, and the limp fish, and the damp clammy mit. Yuk. Why is it so damned important for you all to touch me. Just stop it. Keep your greasy hams off of me! |
