1. A description of a quiet and sudden pause or lull in a conversation, following an inappropriate, embarrassing or really dumb comment, or comment on a subject no one cares about. Derived from a quiet setting ("cued" on a Hollywood or TV set), where the only sound is that of crickets in the background.
So did anyone catch that Paris Hilton post-jail interview?
(Cue the crickets)
Bernie: Oh shit, you hear about Shomari?
Conor: What about him?
Bernie: He got admitted to the hospital for an ACL tear.
Conor: What the fuck, how?
Bernie: He mastered the crow and attempted the cricket. Poor kids a dumbass.
The Cricket is the act of a man run his hard on down a leg of his pants. He then must put one thigh over the other, his hard on between his legs. Then, in the fasion of a cricket, move your leg that is ontop across the leg (and hard on) beneath it. Meant for inconspicuious masturbation in public places
Dude, johnny thought he was hiding it but I saw him doin the cricket during class. He was goin at it pretty hard
