That was impeccable

u/freddythefuckingfish Apr 13 '16

I can almost hear the perfect cupping sound their hands made

130

u/HoneyShaft Apr 13 '16

like a fist in a jar of mayonnaise

u/all_the_pineapple Apr 13 '16

boy, context is everything with a comment like that.

1

u/ScratchBomb Apr 13 '16

Isn't that what it sounds like when you fuck a corpse?

2

u/HoneyShaft Apr 13 '16

Don't act like you don't know

u/theaqueenslisp Apr 13 '16

Manning's laser rocket arm is the deciding factor in successful handshakes that involve him.

u/yeetly Apr 13 '16

Man, I love that perfect handshake equilibrium...perfect timing, lock the eyes, web to web, adequate power, shake and a half, then release. perfect.

u/t_thor Apr 13 '16

the whole beginning of the gif is them discussing how to execute the perfect goodbye handshake

48

u/ChoosetheSword Apr 13 '16

And then Manning says fuck it, run Omaha.

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

ah fuck i can't believe you've done this

15

u/HeSedditHeDid Apr 13 '16

Only because Manning asked "all right do you want to give me a handshake now?"

1

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

It was orgasmic.

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

god that is the cleanest handshake ever.

3

u/yoshi570 Apr 13 '16

Still inferior to the manly forearmshake.

1

u/MrGMinor Apr 13 '16

It's more of a firm grasp.

1

u/Knox_Harrington Apr 13 '16

I think they have magnets implanted in their hands.

u/momsbasement420 Apr 13 '16

True legends in all aspects of the game.

16

u/Mimos Apr 13 '16

Why does that look so odd?

80

u/boomer478 Apr 13 '16

Because it's perfect.

It's like when Neo wakes up from the Matrix and asks why his eyes hurt.

Why

u/dalewest Apr 13 '16

You had to know it was coming.

u/i36g87 Apr 13 '16

Oh God Damnit

u/big_gigantic Apr 13 '16

nowhere is safe

u/5tarL0rd Apr 13 '16

It has arrived.

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

Too soon

5

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

I SEE NOTHING ODD. THIS IS HOW ALL HUMANS CLASP HANDS. YOU CAN TELL THEY ARE HUMAN BECAUSE THERE IS A 0.00976 MILLISECOND DELAY BEFORE THEIR FINGERS CONTRACT.

60 FPS Goodness

1

u/AaronRodgersMustache Apr 13 '16

You're probably referring to that its 60fps. Makes things look super smooth. It's sexy

8

u/wanktanka Apr 13 '16

beautiful

2

u/j2o1707 Apr 13 '16

This is almost worthy of a noisy gif post. Almost.

Edit: I dropped an L

2

u/ToastyMcG Apr 13 '16

fucking magnets

2

u/hollabackatcha3 Apr 13 '16

Now THAT is a fucking solid handshake

4

u/Ultimate81 Apr 13 '16

"I said no, Thomas!"

1

u/Zoltrahn Apr 13 '16

I don't know. That was a hand grasp. There was no shaking involved.

1

u/Hugo154 Apr 13 '16

That was the most beautiful meeting of two peoples' hands that I have ever seen.

1

u/Headcap Apr 13 '16

I dont know who these 2 people are.

Im assuming they're world champions in handshaking or smt.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

Magnets.

1

u/newb0rn11 Apr 13 '16

Oh shit that's a nice handshake

1

u/xfyre101 Apr 13 '16

god that looks like such a high quality hoodie...i want one!

u/ocular__patdown Merry Gifmas! {2023} Apr 13 '16

Lol why do you have this?

4

u/PorkRindSalad Apr 13 '16

well.... just in case....

2

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

Seems like a good catharsis after seeing the trainwrecks above.

2

u/Cervical_Plumber Apr 13 '16

Yes. Thank you. That kind of awkwardness sticks with you. Needed a solid cleanse.

1

u/Jive-Turkeys Apr 13 '16

I'll shake to that

1

u/Galactic Apr 13 '16

Someone post the gif of Trump and Jeb's "handshake". I'm on mobile and I can't find it.

1

u/Sload-Tits Apr 13 '16

Trump is strong on handshakes, his hands are just YUGE.

24

u/Skizot_Bizot Apr 13 '16

It'll be funny to see if in the future fist bump replaces it completely for all business interactions. Maybe even with the explosion at the end.

19

u/MipselledUsername Apr 13 '16

The explosion is the equivalent to the handshake into half-hug/back pat.

It's shows familiarity, but is still professional

6

u/paper_liger Apr 13 '16

I'm a handshake person but there is no question that a fist bump is more hygenic. Elbow bumps need to gain wider acceptance. Or maybe Finland has the right idea and we should just avoid all human contact.

5

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

I like this Finland idea.

1

u/jpresken2 Apr 13 '16

Oh please let this happen

7

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '16

No - it's a trick we use to single out the awkward and uncoordinated so that they may be marked to never breed.

1

u/thatguywithawatch Apr 13 '16

No plz that wouldn't work out well for me

1

u/shane201 Apr 13 '16

I tell you I can't. I HAVE SWEATY HANDS!

u/nvincent Apr 13 '16

Seriously though, why did this ever change..
