The Obama Bump

Barack Obama may not have done enough for peace to merit a Nobel Prize, but he is putting in a good effort for world sanitation. If he manages to launch the fist bump as the new international way for us to greet each other, microbe-borne diseases may become a thing of the past.

Because nothing like a fist bump says “Hey, I acknowledge your existence as a life-form on the planet, and I don’t mind sort-of touching you, but I don’t want to get avian swine pest, okay?”
