In these days of COVID-19, do you do the elbow bump or the Wuhan shuffle?

Of course there is the phantom high five, the wave, the nod, and probably others.

I’m French kissing everyone I meet.

Public restrooms, especially, have a lot of germs and vruses.

I won’t use them. I use incontinent undergarments—which are also good for social distancing.

Nothing! It’s not necessary.

Smile and say hello. You can even do a small wave.

I really think mostly men care about having to touch, or pretend to touch, to greet someone.

I’m good with bowing also. It’s more natural to me at the end of a conversation actually, but I could easily do it when meeting someone. I’ve been saying America should move to the now for 30 years. Hopefully, we will do it with less rules than the Japanese.

The Wuhan shuffle looks fun, but I can’t do it without falling. I gotta stay with elbow bump, or an overly affectionate verbal greeting.

I did two elbow bumps with people yesterday. No shuffles.

I did the namaste today, to a doctor.
I liked it.
Fist bumps are out too, as well as hand shakes obviously.
Some I think I will give the finger.
From 6 feet distance.

I give the nod and stay 6 feet from everyone.

@basstrom188 We have one of these: Toto Washlet C200 and love it! But we still need TP. The air dry takes too long.

Fist bump without the bump.
