About the Epic Handshake Meme

Veins bulging, two extremely muscular arms grip each other in an intense handshake from the movie Predator. Each arm is labeled as a different group, and the clasped hands represent the one specific thing they both agree on. The meme is pure unexpected unity — when bitter rivals find common ground on one specific issue.

From the 1987 action film Predator. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers meet and clasp hands in an intensely muscular handshake. The format labels each arm as a different group and the handshake as the one thing they surprisingly agree on. The opposite of Two Buttons — instead of agonizing between options, two sides find common ground.
