    I’m from California and I can say that most people do it like that but at my school we don’t let go of the other persons hand to fist bump them. We just curl up our fingers as our hands are sliding across each other. It’s hard to describe it using words but it’s a lot faster and simpler to do especially when you and a friend are walking opposite directions and you say hi to each other

    Did anyone else get to college and have a sudden realization that all dudes on campus just intuitively dap up at every meetup?
    Also: I'm in Tennessee and "the weird thing Californians do" has been here for like at least a decade and usually when I notice something it's old news. What I've learned is that due largely to the Internet *place* is losing its *place-ness* much more prolifically than the beginning of popular culture (TV first becoming popular in homes). Whether I'm on the East coast or West coast, the culture isn't strikingly different. I will say that it seems like the social fabric of West coast cities might be a bit worse, but then again, you have the mess that is NYC so...

      Here in brazil thats the standard everywhere casual, the corner in the hood the high society soccer game. But instead of sliding the palms together we hit it to make a clap noise, than fists touch. If you with tha homies we do that bro love one but hard and fast like yall just completed a heist or something lol

    I think 'The Weird Thing Californians Do' is the best one overall because it's so simple that nobody can get it wrong. It can also be used casually without even looking most of the time.

    That first practice dap was not a fail...thats how we dap in the midwest. You greet another male by grabbing slightly below the elbow as he does the same.
    I think it's a power struggle too, cuz sometimes it turns into a bit of an arm wrestling match while it happens.
