When people start talking about straight stuff and you’re totally gay but no one knows it even though you’d think it’d be pretty obvious by now so you’re just sitting there like yeah cool guys—it’s like an inside joke with yourself.

Similar to radio silence but with facebook. The process by which you appear offline on facebook chat and check what others have written on your wall but do not reply or do anything that may appear in your news feed. This way, nobody else will know that you were on there.
Tim: Dude, I posted the funniest link on your wall and you never replied.
Mark: Oh yeah, I got that when Linda was really pissed off at me and I decided to go to facebook silence so she didn't know I was there.
Steve: I didn't go to the party last night so went to facebook silence so that people didn't know I sat in on facebook all night. This meant I could later give the charade of having had just as cool a night as the party-goers.
Dave: Dude, I haven't replied to that creepy girl who sits behind us in Chemistry on facebook...so now I have to stay at facebook silence whenever I log on so she doesn't know I'm ignoring her and just thinks I'm ignoring facebook.

the silence in a conversation when all other parties feel that someone else should be talking, yet no one does. Usually happens directly after a weird comment is made or between two partners on a date.

The erection an officer of the law experiences as he is stacking up behind other officers before making a forced entry into a private dwelling.

When someone dosen't return phone calls or text messages. Most commonly used when trying to develop a relationship with someone.
The girl seemed pretty into me when I met her at the bar, but when I called her the next day, I got total radio silence.

An imaginary zone from which sound or discussion can't escape. The cone of silence is used to keep something quiet or private. Most often applied to spoken communication, but can also apply to writing or email.
From a running gag on the TV show "Get Smart" in which a plexiglass device would lower from the ceiling and cover the heads of two speakers, so that their conversation couldn't be spied upon. The cone of silence rarely worked correctly on TV, and usually isn't much better in real life.

Employee 1: Hey, I just overheard your boss talking about you. You won't believe what he said.
Employee 2: Let's take this one to the cone of silence.
