When was the last time you shook someone’s hand, or kissed them on the cheek to say hello? The pandemic has put a stop to these simple gestures, but should this new way of interacting be permanent?
Is it time to ban handshakes and hugs?

was it for this?
“Enjoyed” hugs, handshakes and even a greeting kiss this weekend. We’ve been doing these things for millennia. I won’t be stopping based on the hysteria and mob mentality that dominates Irish society today.
I did it for the first month or so.
Then when it became obviously clear this thing was not the plague they said it was and people were just being hysterical – I stopped.
Haven’t done any of the other stuff since.
…hahahah…good try Mattie…sure a bear wouldn’t hug you…
and sure he wouldn’t gerrup on ya bist, to get over the wall…
of your covid camp, that is…
bleedin tide wouldn’t take him ou’, wha?
Zzxactly!
Sure there’s no joke like an aul joke…
Eh, B? ;-)
…oh you young guys…it’s so hard keeping up with you Spacer…
“I won’t be stopping based on the hysteria and mob mentality that dominates Irish society today.”
Where outside of the media abyss and social media void does this supposed hysteria and mob mentality exist? I, in my daily interactions with real flesh and blood people, see no evidence of this.
Imigh leat
In our GMB poll tomorrow…
When was the last time you went dogging?
Without knowing precisely what the danger is, would you say it’s time for our viewers to crack each other’s heads open and feast on the goo inside?
@pat
I hereby nominate Donnelly goo first…
Any seconds?
next they’ll come for the riding
This has been a golden age for those of us that hate our personal space being invaded
Close enough for you, Bertie?
I bet you wouldn’t say no to a golden handshake.

Everyone at arms length is our utopian dream.
If hell is other people,
Then Heaven is Hikikomori…
I find friends’ kids tend to ignore it and still come with the hugs. Adults not so much.
Kids don’t spread the virus apparently Lilly. They have a completely different immune system to adult humans.
I wonder what else is going on in Mickey Mouse delusion land. ;)
does it not help build up our immunity. touching and getting close to one another.
i found it awkward, even before metoo when id be worried any physical contact could be misinterpreted.
I beieve the cool kids are all currently using the format

I never hug a strawman.
A bit like Memes.
