"Hello, Onan, it is pleasure to meet you," I said, advancing with a proffered hand extended towards him, which I realized belatedly made me appear oafish, but he took it good naturedly, and with his pleasantness eliminated my unease at shaking the hand of one half my size. HELLO ONUN IT'S A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU I SAID ADVANCING WITH A PREFERRED HAND EXTENDED TOWARDS HIM WHICH I REALIZED BELATEDLY MADE ME APPEAR OAFISH BUT HE STOOD TOOK IT GOOD NATUREDLY AND WITH HIS PLEASANTNESS ELIMINATED MY UNEAS AT SHAKING THE HAND OF ONE HALF MY SIZE

Instead I became as genial as possible, realizing that whatever force was behind this, it was greater than I.
