I think that's one of everyone's Core Principles of Fiving. I think we all resort to our own tactics while fiving that may or may not be considered funny by anyone else. Here's a short selection of mine:

1. The always appropriate Guy A: This is not the time for sarcasm. Guy B: It's always time for sarcasm!
2. The infinitely malleable "I'm a ________, it's what I do."
3. The broader "that sounds like a good idea, too bad it'll never work."
4. Jadzia and slang. Always a personal favorite.
5. Julian's blatant egotism. Ditto.
6. The more subtle 2293/2305 bloodwine and fat-free gagh joke. Does anyone else really find this amusing?
