My bad, sarcasm can be hard to detect on the net, and it's even harder here.

Right now it's harder than ever to tell when someone is joking. For sure there are people out there who would post the same thing that @Choco did with zero irony.

No, handshakes are a thing in Japan, largely due to western influence of course. But it has evolved its own place alongside bowing as a way of politely/respectfully showing friendliness. They even have a very Japanese way of doing it where you bow your head and shake hands at the same time.

Of course bowing was a polite and classy thing for Obama to do. I'm sure other Republican presidents before him all did the same. That's just what you are supposed to do when you're president.

How prevalent is the handshaking part of it though? Like is it mostly reserved for professional settings, informal, or is just in general?

Mostly formal and professional, most often used when you're meeting someone for the first time. It's a common ritual in business especially. You stand up, do the bow/handshake, exchange business cards, and sit down to talk.

Are you going to say this wasn't true for Fox News, which this topic was about?

Also I would say the mainstream "liberal" media is way nicer to Trump than he deserves. All Trump has to do is not royally fuck up at basic presidential stuff that every president before him did on a daily basis, and they'll fall all over themselves congratulating him for being "presidential."

Even Kim Jong-un seems surprised to see this.

I know people who hate Trump for saluting. They actually support his ideologies, but they think it's disrespectful. Is it actually disrespectful?
