Burris Greeting

A Burris Greeting is very similar to the "Burris wave" its the act of flipping a friend off as a joke or for fun when the teacher is not looking. Not meant to be a mean gesture. Can be used when a student makes a stupid comment or makes a joke about you and you don't have time for a comeback.

student 1: (knocks student 2's stuff)
student 2: why did you do that?!
student 1: your mom forgot to pay me
student 2: ,,|,, (or Burris greeting)

Text: ,,|,, or ,,|,, (*_*) ,,|,,

generic greeting

Refers to da friendly wave, nod,. smile, etc. dat you courteously preform in response to a passing motorist/pedestrian who honks or calls hello to you, but you are unable to identify said greeter because the person has already moved too far away by the time you "get turned around" to see who it was.

A sportsman friend of mine experienced a classic case of "generic greeting" whenever he visited my area --- "The only thing I can figure is that I must have a vehicle that looks a lot like a local resident's, because everyone waves eagerly to me when I drive through town, and yet I don't really know anyone here. But heck, that's perfectly okay with me --- I dunno why they wave, but I just always wave back!"

greet

A greet is a lesser or unexperienced nigreet. They share many of the same qualities, but the major difference is the amount of bowls they can snap.

He’s just a greet, but one day he’ll learn to snap like a true nigreet.

gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting

Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.

I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.
