All I'm seeing in my area are fist or elbow bumps.

While I see the cultural and symbolic contexts, I never liked shaking hands. Being abused as a towel and have others smearing their hand sweat and dirt on me, simply is not up to my taste, and never was. I prefer an implied bow or, more Japanese, a fuller bow, a nodding of the head, eye contact, or the Indian "Namaste" greeting gesture (two hands), or Buddhist gesture (one hand). I also do not like embraces, hugs and kisses for greetings. Never liked all that. Physical contact, like using prenames, is reserved for very close, intimate social contacts, in my perception: family, closest of friends, lovers, never for foreigners and socially distant strangers or superiors in a social hierarchy, never. I tend to see handshaking as a social assault (=Übergriffigkeit).
Elbows or feet or fist knuckles, as became common during Corona, I simply find embarassing and infantile. I flatly refuse and ignore it. We may be descended from apes, but we don't have to make one of ourselves.

That having been said, I generally would prefer no greetings whatsoever. Let's just get down to business so I can get out of here more quickly. I don't need to spend an hour engaged in idle chit-chat with people I don't like but have to work with. |

Facebook is not killing people ... they are stirring people up with the truth.

Target bearing 020, fire! Looks like the everyone’s favorite medicine man is on the hot seat. Go Rand Paul.

Obviously somebody does not know how "question and answering" does work. Speaker A aks a question, and speaker B remains silent and listens so nthat eh can get what the quesiton is about. Then the roles change and speaker B talks, giving an answer, durign that speaker A remains silent so that he can get what the answer is about- else he cannot hear what speaker B is saying.
Or speaker A is not willing to let anything being heard as an aswer different than what he wants to be heard. In that case he may want to consider to hand to speaker B a written copy of the answer he then asks speaker B to just read from that paper for the microphones as the only answer he already has predetemined as valid (often translating into: serving his purposes). This way, a hearing is being turned into a show tribunal. Rand however forgot to deceive his intention better. His torpedoe ran a circle and returned to him. Idiotic.
