#2082: Carpelcarapace
If you need to shake lots of hands, perhaps when running for office, there is a degree of carpel crushing to endure.
Today’s invention is a slip-on fake cast which prevents people from doing that insane thing of expressing their need for friendship or dominance by trying to squeeze your hand to a pulp.
The appearance alone would deter keen crushers but an internal metal stiffener makes such behaviour fruitless.
For those people who really hate secret handshakes (as I do), it would also broadcast the fact that they were simply undetectable whilst wearing this device.
