Fourth Wall Fall Wave

When a cartoon character realizes they are about to fall a great distance. But before they begin to fall, they look directly at the screen and wave goodbye to the viewer(s).

Wile E. Coyote is the undisputed master of the Fourth Wall Fall Wave.

Collateral Wave

The manner in which an innocent bystander intercepts a "wave" or a greeting intended for someone immediately adjacent to them by accident and creates an awkward situation.

Waving the Banner

When you fart on a few squares of toilet paper to make them wave in the breeze.

I had a proper fart built up, so waving the banner rallied my troops.

Bus driver wave

When 2 bus pass each other the drivers will wave to each other. BUT if the buses are from different depots or other companies the drivers may choose to ignore the other driver.
If the drivers know each other personally they may flip off each other, give the finger to each other, or tell the other driver to Fuck Off

When bus S2003 passed bus C5109 the driver of the C bus ignored the S bus instead of giving the Bus Driver Wave.
When the S bus saw the C bus next he flipped the driver off and told the driver to Fuck Off Cunt

Wave

First the media said a second wave was coming in the fall. Then they said the United States had already begun a third wave. At some point, they just start saying another wave. They must think it's hilarious.

If it's still the second wave, the third wave hasn't begun yet. Some people do pay attention.
