Also called a Turkish-how-do-you-do, an Iranian Handshake is a casual hand job. It is usually preferred in the mornings with a side of eggs.
Jordan: Oh shit! Did that guy just try to touch my dick?!
Hermann: show a little respect would ya? It's their culture to give Iranian Handshakes.

A.k.a. "moocher's greeting" or "glad-handout"; it refers to where one of your "friends" beamingly approaches you with extended arm as if to greet you with a hearty palm-clasp, but instead of positioning his hand vertically the way one usually does when shaking hands, he holds his outstretched palm **upwards** so that his hand is horizontal --- this "gimme, gimme, gimme" position is how his hand is usually held whenever he is around fellow humans (duh!).
I always feel suspicious whenever someone greets me with a horizontal handshake, since it is a good indication that he is planning to ask me for a handout.

A mediocre dodgeball team comprised of approximately eight individuals who, although are all very impressive individually, stand very little chance in winning anything as a group.
"Did you guys see Emergency Handshake yesterday?"
"Naw, who would want to watch a bunch of amateurs?"

A game in which participants grab a tight hold of the other participants groins. The first person who passes out (or otherwise quits by releasing the opponent's crotch) is declared the loser, and must remunerate the other players, typically by buying drinks.
Our crew couldn't decide who was paying so we gave one another the Ol' Columbus Handshake to see who'd buy the first round.

Refers to where ya grasp da "inside" hands of a couple in your hands, so dat your left and right hands are fully fitted into their corresponding hands, rather than just employing either classic holding-hands clasps or finger-interlacings with their "outside" hands, which would allow them to still hold hands wif each other while they're giving your hands some warm lovies wif their own.
Employing da double-handshake clasp can indeed be delightfully soh-shuh-buhl for all concerned; just be careful dat you don't hold those two hands for so long a time dat you start engaging in inside-hands hogging. If you wanna hold hands wif them for extended periods, smilingly fit their inside hands back into a classic hands-holding clasp after maybe half a minute of holding them yourself, and then take their free outside hands to hold instead.
