1439464 2017-09-20 22:26:00 Can't understand it. Why do they slap hands? They call it a high five, but why, when there are 10 fingers involved? And of course, there is the cricketers who rush up to each other and slap both hands. Is that called a high twenty?

It seems an entirely pointless thing to do. But the question remains: Why on earth do they do it?:confused:

1439465 2017-09-20 22:39:00 why do men shake hands when they meet & depart. Pointless
Its 2017, not 1017

why do people wave to each other. Its pointless. I can see you , no need to wave like an idiot
why do people smile at each other. Totally unnecessary & seen as threatening behavior by some animals

Why. Because we are humans , not robots.
expect grumpy bums who dislike anything they cant understand .

1439466 2017-09-20 23:16:00 You hold your hand up high with fingers and thumb spread flat - high 5. It's actually quite descriptive.
They do it because they want to.

When you're young these things seem a bit more fun, as you get older you care less and less about such things. If you're the curmudgeonly sort they start to seem totally stupid.
I have caught myself muttering "moron" under my breath as young people go past doing things I may have once done myself :)

Pathetic w..kers.
