The rare awkward moment between two male acquaintances or friends when the parting gesture (handshake, fist bump, or bro hug) gets fumbled. This occurs most often either when one goes in for a bro hug and the other wants to shake hands, or when one goes for the traditional handshake and the other goes for some version of the urban handshake. The awkwardness usually lingers until your next parting, at which time you both slightly overcompensate for the previous confusion by first, deciding what form your parting will take, and second, executing it with decidedly more gusto than usual.
We totally botched our handshake last time.
Tots, brah, that was as ugly a braux pas as you're gonna see.
This time, it's a handshake, OK?
Sounds good. I was feeling a little weird about it, too.

The scenic and historic capital of PA, formerly known for a high crime rate, but recently experiencing a cultural renaissance, particularly in Midtown, home of Book Row and the Midtown Theater, as well as the Historic District and Cheap Date jazz Tuesdays.
The Capitol District, Shipoke District, and Midtown offer some of PA's finest architecture. The Capitol building is worth a trip from anywhere; it is a fine example of neoclassical stylism combined with Baroque and renaissance revival elements.
Downtown looks like a miniature version of Chicago or Philly, with an impressive skyline for only having 50,000 residents. Harrisburg features fine dining, good and diverse bars, casual restaurants, three hookah bars, and a beautiful river walk.
City Island, Harrisburg's Navy Pier, is the "Playground for the Whole Family" while the cities host of museums and festivals will keep a visitor of any taste busy.
The biggest little metropolis in the US.

Hyndman, PA is a small town in southern Bedford County. It has survived the 1936 flood and saw it's downtown destroyed in the 1949 Christmas fire. The citizens banded together in both the 1984 and 1996 flash floods to assist one another. Although small, it has three railroad crossings, one blinking stop light, and a big heart.
Where is Hyndman, PA?
