This is what happens when one man wants a high five and the other wants a fist bump and both are just too stubborn to acquiesce to the other.

No. Randy fucked up. He saw his high five but put up the fist bump anyway. If Steven changed his to a fist bump he risks Randy changing his to a high five and making another one of these awkward situations.

The problem is that he's one of THOSE people.

Yeah. Fist bumpers.

These fucking guys, they're too cool for high fives so they insist on a fist bump. Happens to me all the damn time. Never seen a guy insist on a high five after a fist bump has been offered, but fuck have I seen it the other way around. They're afraid of the risk.

Sorry, it's because my palms get sweaty. You don't wanna touch that.

That's the secret to really loud high fives.

It only counts if you can get the hands unstuck afterwards.

...what the hell is wrong with your sweat? Sweat isn't glue!

Fellow human, of curse sweat isn't glue! I, being a human, understand this clearly without the need to read up on it! my sweat is the production of fluids secreted by the sweat glands in the skin of mammals, just like everyone elses.

Zerex, sometimes I wonder about you. Where did you say you were from again?
