The 'I Want To Shake Your Hand' meme originated from a viral video featuring a man on a flight who became agitated and began aggressively shouting the phrase at another passenger or staff member. While the situation appeared tense, the man's repetitive and peculiar phrasing turned the moment into an instant internet classic. It is commonly used to represent someone who is obsessively trying to get someone else's attention, or as a sarcastic reaction to a post or opinion that is so 'good'—or perhaps so controversial—that it deserves a physical confrontation disguised as a polite gesture.
