- sethk827, on 05/21/2008, -4/+69girl on girl bump...the forbidden fruit
- RyeBrye, on 05/21/2008, -4/+62It's called "pounding" not "bumping"

(do not fist pound: Army of Two) - danomagnum, on 05/21/2008, -2/+4610. Do not fist bump yourself.
Is that what they're calling it now? - OlDirtyCurty, on 05/21/2008, -2/+40The bill passed! Give me dap!
- charliekelly, on 05/21/2008, -4/+41Love the list! Fist bumping has definitely strayed outside of it's designated zones.
- RichardHendrix, on 05/21/2008, -4/+321. If sports are involved, fist bumping is always acceptable.
2. If you are wearing a suit, you may only fist bump if you are drunk. Or if you have just wrapped part of your suit around your forehead.
3. You may not fist bump under any circumstances, in a hospital. Unless Rule #1 (or Rule #2) applies.
4. Do not fist bump someone else’s misfortune, even if it helps you. Just look down, furrow your brow, and nod sternly.
5. No fist bumping between the hours of 7am and 10am. And if you’re watching sports at this time, it’s probably soccer or NASCAR, and then you should really not be fist bumping. High fives will suffice for both.
6. Do not fist bump in a meeting. Even if you are drunk.
7. Do not fist bump your children. Unless you’re drunk, then it’s OK.
8. Girls can fist bump anytime they want. And yes, guys think it’s cute.
9. Do not refuse a fist bump. If you, as a bumpee, believe the bumper is violating a rule, speak to him afterwards. Refusing his bump is not going to help anything.
10. Do not fist bump yourself. - OldGrandma, on 05/21/2008, -6/+34Inappropriate fist bumping is like poverty, a queef, or Zima, it just isn't good.
- dickardwa, on 05/21/2008, -6/+27Good post. I love that picture. Such dumbasses.
- weizilla, on 05/21/2008, -3/+22psh, fist bumping is out. this is the new thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxC8zycxa4g
- guillebravo6, on 05/21/2008, -5/+24Original post, I like it!
- inactive, on 05/21/2008, -1/+18Respect Knuckles!
- iamronburgundy, on 05/21/2008, -2/+18A queef can be okay, given the right circu....actually no, you're right.
- Cheese6034, on 05/21/2008, -1/+17RE: Rule #2
I always go with the tie around the forehead Rambo-style before doing any fist bumping in a suit. - violentvinyl, on 05/21/2008, -0/+12I think context is extremely important. If that guy just sneezed into his hand or was scratching his balls you'd be thanking him for the fist bump instead of a hand shake.
Ever shaken the hand of someone with cold clammy hands or really warm ones? Ever wish you didn't? - solidsnake1298, on 05/21/2008, -1/+13Penny Arcade beat him to it.
http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2008/3/07/ - drewdown112, on 05/21/2008, -3/+12Fist bump for fisting? Discuss....
- staffell, on 05/21/2008, -1/+10dugg for point 10, and point 10 alone
- Teh_Shiz, on 05/21/2008, -1/+9***** props. Whatever happened to pounding it?
- manacit2, on 05/21/2008, -10/+18We’ve all done the fist bump. Maybe your team just scored, maybe you just bowled a strike, maybe you just won a rap battle. These are all acceptable times to bump fists with a friend. The picture on the right, however, illustrates a time where it is definitely NOT okay to bump fists.
In case you’re wondering, these guys were celebrating the completion of a deal that brought a 42-mile rail corridor into public ownership.
Yeah, I know. That’s ***** boring. Look, if the fist bump is brought into areas where it clearly does not belong, where does it end? Will Obama get a fist bump from Bill Clinton right after he’s sworn in? Will we, someday soon, see a surgeon give a tearful wife a bump after successfully removing her husband’s brain tumor? Are you gonna fist bump your buddy after he sucks the rattlesnake venom out of your inner thigh?
So in an effort to help you out, we here at TastyBooze have devised a simple set of rules to aid you in appropriate fist bumping.
1. If sports are involved, fist bumping is always acceptable.
2. If you are wearing a suit, you may only fist bump if you are drunk. Or if you have just wrapped part of your suit around your forehead.

Happy fist bumping, kids! And if any of you have any photographic examples of bad fist bumps, send them to us, and we will make it known! - TheNik, on 05/21/2008, -0/+8That deserves a fist bump more than most anything.
- BerenTW, on 05/21/2008, -0/+8obviously his mistake was he wasn't drunk in that suit.
- liljay2k, on 05/21/2008, -2/+9pound it.
- ivansusanin, on 05/21/2008, -2/+9buried. tom cruise was in top gun
- mangosinslo, on 05/21/2008, -0/+7respek!
- Anemichelix, on 05/21/2008, -0/+6Echidnas...*sigh*
- PCloadLetterWTF, on 05/21/2008, -0/+6*edit, apparently 5 minutes still isn't enough time for me*
props, daps, pounding, hit the rock... really they are all better than fist pounding. Like you, I was expecting something much less work-safe. - VortexSpin, on 05/21/2008, -0/+6What's in? Enlighten me, sensei.
- chrgrose, on 05/21/2008, -0/+6Whenever I fist bump my girlfriend I always get awkward comments later about how I suck at fist bumping...
I've tried everything but I still don't know what I'm doing wrong. - 0Xonox0, on 05/21/2008, -0/+6First Rule of Pounding: Never call it "bumping"
- ho0ber, on 05/21/2008, -1/+7Because fist bumping is serious business. That's all there is to it.
- sdcarter, on 05/21/2008, -2/+8wanna look really un-cool? be the guy who doesn't fist-bump.
- PCloadLetterWTF, on 05/21/2008, -0/+5I've never heard it called fist bumping or props... I've always heard it as "hit the rock"
- Teh_Shiz, on 05/21/2008, -0/+5You are correct. Pounding it involves colliding two fists from any direction. I have no idea where this "bumping" nonsense originated from.
- redfred18t, on 05/21/2008, -0/+5I've been trying to find that comic for ages
THANK YOU MUSLAX! - danwallace, on 05/21/2008, -0/+5Way to bro.
- estvir, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4You're never to old for high-fives and there are very circumstances where they are not appropriate.
- xmizzbojanglesx, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4Retardedmango is retarded.
- NINman, on 05/21/2008, -2/+6Impressive reply... Your internet ***** must be huge.
- kajoob, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4Designated zones? ***** - I don't care if you're at a funeral, fist bumps are always appropriate.
- TopherT, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4Thats not the stupidest thing I've ever heard, but its not the smartest either.
- Oea420, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4OGC
- NonLeftistDiggr, on 05/21/2008, -1/+5I was the perfect age for when this became popular, in college, on call to drink, and wondering the proper goodbye to use with the dude I just bought weed from for the third time. But as I get older the bump gets more and more awkward.
FK it, I'm going back to the around the world Hi Five. - emalen, on 05/21/2008, -0/+4Has anyone ever actually violated that rule?
- bl0ger, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3I just fist bumped myself...
- MikeSD34, on 05/21/2008, -1/+4The same reason we need labels on lawn mowers telling people not to stick their hands under them and lift them while they're on and labels on coffee cups that say "Caution: Hot". Stupid people doing stupid things ruin it for the rest of us.
- tmalloy, on 05/21/2008, -3/+6Buried for the soccer comment. It's the most popular sport in the world for a reason.
- pat0neill, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3dugg for implementing List: ______ to make me not read this
- bagboyrebel, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3it was implying that soccer is an inferior sport, when in fact it IS the most popular sport worldwide.
