In Korea, the term "skinship" is used to describe the act of intimate, non-sexual touching between very close (Usually same-sex, but can include both genders.) platonic friends. It involves acts such as holding hands/arms, hugging, and kissing on the cheeks.
Sometimes it goes even deeper than that and can even involve bathing together, as Koreans (And the Japanese) believe that group nudity helps break down the barriers and helps establish a closer relationship.

It's not unusual to see Koreans walking and holding hands with each other, even if they're not in a relationship. That just means that they have a deep skinship with each other.

Activity in which bros gather around and crochet. Usually only occurs in the latter stages of the bromance. It's a pretty chill thing to do.

a far classier version of "i like your style", originally used by pirates in the 17th century the expression refers to the forward sail on most ships. The course and speed of a ship is determined by the cut of the ships jib so saying that you like the cut of someones jib is a way of saying, i like the way you're heading.
Original 17th Century Pirate context:
A - I think we should mutiny, Yarr!
B - I like the cut of your jib (jim lad optional)!!!
21st Century context:
A - lets go for a beer and some readily available cannabis
B - alright, i like the cut of your jib
A - I think we should mutiny, Yarr!
B - I like the cut of your jib (jim lad optional)!!!
21st Century context:
A - lets go for a beer and some readily available cannabis
B - alright, i like the cut of your jib
