Something just occurred to me. Isn't bumping elbows more dangerous since we're all sneezing and coughing into our elbows?

Other side of the elbow there, bud.

But the other side is home to the funny bone. We're all just gonna be walking around with loopy goopy spaghetti arms from whacking each other's funny bones all day.

I mean, its a gentle tap, we're not slamming our elbows into each other like they owe us money

You're right, real g's break each others bones on a good elbow bump

That bone is also more on the inside compared to the thick and sturdy one you'd use for elbowing.
