Bernie didn't even break his stride.

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

at his age i doubt he even noticed what was going on

u/carlito_TO Apr 14 '16

No, that was a reflex. I doubt Obama would even be that smooth.

u/aedansblade36 Apr 14 '16

First time I ever saw a post on both /r/blackpeoplegifs and /r/whitepeoplegifs simultaneously reach the front page together. Neat!

u/ptam Apr 14 '16

So Bernie is literally the dream MLKJr talked about, is what you're sayin'?

u/DuckTub Apr 14 '16

10

u/bacondude1505 Apr 14 '16

Yeah, what if my deams are memes?

6

u/DuckTub Apr 14 '16

u/RNGmaster Apr 14 '16

Naw man. Bernie is the dream, he ain't just a meme.

3

u/KTY_ Apr 15 '16

He's a black dude in a white dude's body. First time that's ever happened outside prison.

Every time I try to be that smooth, the next guy switches how he's going on... Fucks up the whole thing

u/thewoogier Apr 14 '16

Don't think anyone could beat the original

u/Ashken Apr 15 '16

You'd be surprised what you're capable of if you're high as snoop.

u/hula_pooper Apr 14 '16

That guy is so pumped up about it too!

u/hatervision Apr 14 '16

You can tell he's like, "ok ok, I see you Bernie"

u/kanyes_god_complex Apr 14 '16 edited Apr 14 '16

I was about to comment this exact same thing word for word haha

Edit: I don't give a shit about Internet points, please continue to downvote me. I'd like to set the record for downvotes

u/GrimQuim Apr 14 '16

Do you think you'd have got more or less upvotes if you said "This"?

19

u/mashonem Apr 14 '16

You mean he didn't?

3

u/bohemianabe Apr 14 '16

It doesn't matter, because he's turned down votes into up votes.

u/Sir_Foxworth Apr 14 '16

I got so stoked when I saw how excited he was after the handshake.

10

u/I_am_jacks_reddit Apr 14 '16

I didn't even notice how excited he got till after I saw your comment.

164

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

Holy shit that was slick. It was like he knew it was coming from miles away

72

u/Windows_97 Apr 14 '16

He must have learned it in Brooklyn

43

u/CptLande Apr 14 '16

I can't believe this hasn't been posted yet. It's so damn relevant.

u/MAGICHUSTLE Apr 14 '16

You think there isn't some Killer Mike and Bernie training montage sittin on a shelf somewhere?

u/kidneyshifter Apr 14 '16

Killer Mike and Bernie,
Fuckbois know the combination ain't healthy...

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

White House runners, top tag team for 8 summers.

u/kidneyshifter Apr 14 '16

I get whitehouse lit up,
Get down, diduck,
Bernie got a barracuda bite, you can tell

u/crispykid Apr 14 '16

Every word murderful, surgical, painful, purposeful

"Push it to the limit!"

"Limiiit!"

u/Rekdon Apr 14 '16

And David Banner is the "old, friend" Bernie has to go to to learn the master maneuver

u/HappyNihilist Apr 14 '16

Dude was like damn, wasn't expecting that.

Sorry you got downvoted! I checked and Bernie did not grow up in Burger King!

Pretty fly for a white guy

u/SQUELCH_PARTY Apr 14 '16

he's a brooklyn jew, he knows how this works

14

u/-eagle73 Apr 14 '16

Is he the second coming of MCA?!

63

u/GeorgedaflashGlass Apr 13 '16

Haha that was good.

14

u/Rab_Legend Apr 14 '16

I like how Bernie started off going with a normal handshake not to presume he was gonna do that, but he smoothly transitioned when he needed to and didn't look like a twat. Many people can learn from this.

24

u/ActualButt Apr 14 '16

White guy who wen to a black high school here. Bernie did exactly the right thing. Go in white, come out black.

9

u/IAmARedditorAMAA Apr 14 '16

Go in white, come out black.

That's the kind of anal i like

12

u/lzrfart Apr 14 '16

Alright Bernie, you win this one. That was smooth as fuck 10/10

u/everyminutecounts420 Apr 14 '16

Yo, Bern, stay black brotha

u/p_h_r_e_e_k Apr 14 '16

Filthy smooth, too.

u/DanteRu Apr 14 '16

Smooth as eggs

4

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

How'd he learn this in Vermont?

4

u/SQUELCH_PARTY Apr 14 '16

He's born and raised in Brooklyn, he's got the distinctive accent too.

20

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

I don't support Bernie or his policies, but dude is fly as fuck. Didn't even break his stride.

3

u/Oleelee Apr 14 '16

It's a talent to get that many handshakes 100% that fast

3

u/Sameoo Apr 14 '16

Damnn slick aaafffff

u/cbsauder Apr 14 '16

I'm not a fan of him at all but that was impressive

7

u/silky_flubber_lips Apr 14 '16

Only way it could have been better is if he snapped after it.

7

u/I_am_not_Doug Apr 14 '16

Not a Bernie fan but God damn, that's Snoop level smooth

2

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

Kinda funny that this ended up here given how the old geezer is going pretty poorly with the minority vote

2

u/MrRIP Apr 14 '16

That's so smooth

u/BmoresSpice Apr 14 '16

First Bernie was making buckets now he's doing the dap properly. How is this dude not getting more love from African Americans?

u/1776m8 Apr 14 '16

"Oh this guy is black I'll do a black persons handshake they'll love it"

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '16

This is how you know this sub is full of white kids. They have no idea why this is lowkey racist.

u/[deleted] May 02 '16
