    Internext Tip: Men with limp "Dead Fish" handshakes. What do you think?

    As Internext approaches, I thought of something that happens to me at least 3-4 times of the 100's of hands I end up shaking in 5 days time.

    What do you think about the "Dead Fish" limpy handshake?

    I was always taught to give a firm, pronounced handshake and look the person in the eyes and smile when you greet.

    What do you think when someone "dead fishes" you?

    It's ok to me when certain girls do it, but when I get one of those from men, it just creeps me out.

          its significance is antiquated... This industry has all walks of life. super confident go getters, guys who can barely make eye contact ever, loud guys, quiet guys.. none of it means shit at the end of the day. One thing I can tell you is though. You will never meet a scam artist who doesn't shake your hand firmly and look you in the eye first.

              I'm more concerned about the people who don't wash their hands. Especially after using the restroom.

                  Disagree. I have met lots of wimpy, sneaky, stab you in the back characters over the years, both in the music industry and in the adult space. Computer nerds and agoraphobics are no less evil than anyone else.

                      I totally agree with all of your points! Saves me writing anything on the subject.


                      Thanks


                      To add; I met some very powerful billionaires and millionaires who can buy and sell me at a whim, that have limp hand shakes.

                          That's some silly old timer bullshit; every crook in the fucking world did that.

                          I don't really want to touch anyone's hand these days, they either have drug or gunshot residue on them.



                          Fist bump is fine with me, motherfuckers pick their nose and then reach out their fucking hand for a shake.

                          Do you want stop spreading the cold and flu; then stop shaking hands.

                                      Strong or weak, scum come in all colors but more often in a suit and tie. I hate week handshakes and get a gross feeling but for the most part I rub it off since instincts can be incorrect.

                                              I've turned into a fist bump guy vs handshakes.

                                              Worked from home for 10 years. Never got sick other than the "show flu" when I'd get back from all the handshaking.

                                              Started working at a real office is 2008 and was sick every 2 months from all the handshakes & touching door handles.

                                              Starting doing fist bumps & using napkins to open doors and now I rarely get sick.

                                              Unless we close some major deal or there's a good reason to shake your hand, I prefer fist bumps now.

                                                                          problem is you are going to an event frequented by people from all over the world, and what is considered respectable here is not everywhere. Here we might value a good handshake and eye contact, somewhere else that is much less relevant. For example, (and forgive me if this is completely false, I tend to believe everything that I read on the internet) I read a couple weeks ago that in some Asian countries the handshake is much less important than something like where you put someones business card after they give it to you. If you take one look at it then put it in your back pocket, you are basically saying "thanks but no thanks fuck face!" if you put it in your shirt pocket you are showing respect.

Immediately, I get the "oh this bitch lifts weights" revelation and I'm impressed with her grip.

                                                                                              But I don't like those weak handshakes from guys. Creeps me out.

                                                                                              The worst is when both of you kind of miss and the palms don't meet. You both know it's a botched handshake, but nobody says anything.

Immediately, I get the "oh this bitch lifts weights" revelation and I'm impressed with her grip.

                                                                                                      But I don't like those weak handshakes from guys. Creeps me out.

                                                                                                      The worst is when both of you kind of miss and the palms don't meet. You both know it's a botched handshake, but nobody says anything.
                                                                                                      I hold back on the manly man handshake with women too.

I mean you would obviously understand that this is not how a man shakes his hand...

                                                                                                                                                                              While you may say that now, but in reality if I'm the holding the keys to a major deal where you'll make $$$, then the money you'll earn trumps how I said hello, lol.

                                                                                                                                                                              If we meet in a loud club at a show where we can barely hear each other it's not a "business" setting.

                                                                                                                                                                              But the truth is I do shake hands when meeting someone. But after I've met you, best believe i'll probably fist bump you. If that makes me unprofessional then so be it. At least I won't go home from a show sneezing & coughing, lol And those that want to make $$$ will still contact me. Those that will give up $$$ cause of a fist bump probably didn't have much business anyways.....

                                                                                                                                                                              I'm sort of trolling here though. Of course I do shake hands after closing a biz deal. And of course I shake hands when meeting someone new in a biz environment. But after we've met and we're just saying hi or by in passing at shows I'll fist bump.

                                                                                                                                                                                  If we meet in a loud club at a show where we can barely hear each other it's not a "business" setting.

                                                                                                                                                                                  But the truth is I do shake hands when meeting someone. But after I've met you, best believe i'll probably fist bump you. If that makes me unprofessional then so be it. At least I won't go home from a show sneezing & coughing, lol And those that want to make $$$ will still contact me. Those that will give up $$$ cause of a fist bump probably didn't have much business anyways.....

Of course with someone older I show respect with handshakes. But anyone younger than me I'm more likely to fist bump.
