RACCOON (in trench coat): one kiss WAITER *suspicious*: you're not from around here, are you? RACCOON: t-two kisses? WAITER: ah yes that is a normal quantity of kisses RACCOON *excitedly*: five kisses! WAITER: *eyes narrow*

Typically, Croats and Bosniaks will kiss once on each cheek, for two total kisses, whereas Serbs will kiss once, but three times as a traditional greeting, typically starting at the right cheek. In Serbia and Montenegro, it is also common for men to kiss each other on the cheek three times as a form of greeting, usually for people they have not encountered in a while, or during the celebrations (wedding, birthday, New Year, religious celebrations, etc.).
