I'd taken up bowing. Nothing obnoxious, just a lowering of the head. Did so years ago after I realized that despite me getting older and ostensibly weaker more and more of my handshakes felt like grabbing a bag of rotten fruit. I've always been careful to not go past "firm" but at some point I just got tried of having to treat people like their arms ended in Fabergé eggs.

So now I have my contrarian nature pushing me to start handshaking again. It's annoying but I mostly ignore it because I don't want those fruit bags again. (But I sure as fuck ain't doing that elbow stupdity.)
