A handshake constitutes an unspoken agreement to capture a seagull and deliver it to the other party when one party finds themselves in the presence of said birds.
Observer: "Wow, that's a rocking handshake! I can't wait 'til she gives him a seagull"

Rick: "Hey Ashlea. Thanks for the seagull. I now know how much our handshake means to you."
Ashlea: "You're welcome! I'd give you all the seagulls in all the beaches if I could."
Rick: "Gee. You are a true friend and we are both very funny and attractive."
Eavesdropper: "Hey, I was overhearing you guys talk about how funny and attractive you both are and I want you to know that it is true. Everyone says you are both very funny and attractive and the whole city of Baltimore wants you both as romantic and sexual partners but we know you can't choose us all so we are all very sad all the time."
Rick: "Thanks. That means a lot."

the handshake is when a person is put in constraints in an asylum and is given a sedative in pill form. Then instead of ingesting the pill the person puts it under their tongue until their caretaker leaves so they can spit it out and continue to be crazy.

there are some guesses that this is the type of handshake referred to in MGMT's song the Handshake.
The crazy person thought he wouldnt get caught doing the handshake but the caretaker noticed the pile of pills collecting on his chest. Now he is given sedatives through a syringe.

A lot of people take a handshake as a sign of trust by both parties (and as a weakness, where it would be stupid to trust someone who's given you no good reason to trust them). Shaking hands, pounding fists, or bumping elbows often seems like an attempt to force another party to trust, make peace, or do business with another, which is why some people dont readily shake everybody's hand when they meet them (especially people they dont know, or dont know well). Not shaking hands lets the other party know the trust isn't there, and isn't guaranteed to get there.
Realistically, not everything works out between two people. A handshake doesn't fix anything, it only gives one party the sense that everything is okay with the other party. People should not rely on a handshake to determine whether everything is okay between two people or not.
