gear-shift greeting

A playful alternative to shaking hands, this hearty/jovial "hello" gesture entails grabbing yer friend's toes in each hand and yanking his feet back and forth like transmission-levers.

I love giving gear-shift greetings to pretty girls whom I meet; not only does it elicit delighted/amused giggle-fits outta dem, but it also usually makes dem comfy wif having me handle their cute tootsies, and so they generally are then okay wif letting me give dem foot-rubz. as well.

truckers gear shift

It's when an artist or band is trying to make their song just a little bit longer, but have no additional lyrics. So they sing the chorus another time or two in a higher octave.

REM is notorious for doing this.

You can tell John ran out of lyrics, cuz he hit the truckers gear shift like he was headed east on the 10.
