Comes from the song Hey Ya! by a group called Outkast intoning women to shake it out on the dance floor. Refers back to when people used to wave around or fan their instant photos in order to dry them. The popularity of this song/phrase caused the Polaroid company to put out a press release warning people NOT to shake today's Polaroids because it would ruin them.
She knew how to attract men: she would get out on the dance floor and shake it like a Polaroid picture!

Hey Bob, save me a spot in that meeting. I have to drop by the bathroom to shake hands with Dick Cheney.

Masturbation; spanking the monkey; shining the pope; pleasing the tall dude with the beard; playing 5 on 1, hanging out with Mary Palmer and her 5 sisters
When the professor asked the students if "there were any other terms for masturbation" to add to the list he had on the board during our human sexuality class, the class fell silent. Then, this grisly old dude in the back crowed out "shaking hands with Abe Lincoln". His addition shocked the entire class including the professor.
