The 'Bad Handshake' meme originates from Tim Burton's 'Batman' (1989), featuring Jack Nicholson as The Joker and actor Edwin Craig as the mob boss Antoine Rotelli. In this darkly comedic scene, The Joker offers a peace-making handshake to Rotelli during a tense meeting, only to reveal a lethal high-voltage joy buzzer that electrocutes the mobster to a crisp. The Joker’s subsequent line, 'I'm glad you're dead!' cements the character's chaotic and ruthless nature. This clip is widely used as a reaction to represent aggressive networking, professional sabotage, or situations where a friendly gesture hides a devastating trap. It perfectly captures the feeling of being 'burned' by a colleague or handling a toxic social interaction with extreme prejudice. Example captions include: 'Me networking with the person who tried to get me fired,' 'When the recruiter says the company culture is like a family,' and 'That one coworker who won't stop talking about their crypto portfolio.'
