McCain Shuffle

Reversing all of one's previous political positions in a last-ditch effort to be nominated for President by a major political party.

Usually happens to a once-principled Republican who sells his or her soul to the fringe right to survive the primary process at the end of his or her career.

Romney really pulled a McCain Shuffle--first he was for an individual mandate, then abandoned RomneyCare when it looked like it might hurt his candidacy.

The Berkley Shuffle

A dance that is done at Berkley High School in Berkley, Michigan.

This dance is always played as the last number at Homecoming, Prom, or etc. It's cue starts when Mr. Daas sings "Freshmen! Sophomores!" in the Berkley Rally Song. At that point, you hit your pelvis region and then throw your hands in the air and make a 'lasso' motion.

In order to perform this dance, everyone MUST be wearing eyeliner and have their hair in a perm.

Wow, that The Berkley Shuffle really hurt my pelvis.

The Alaskan shuffle

The hotfooted dance you do when your bare feet are exposed to snow, and as a result you begin shuffling around.

"holy christ it's cold out here...oh no i appear to have forgotten my shoes too"

Jim then performed an explicit version of The Alaskan Shuffle.

couple shuffle

When a couple are taking pictures of each other, especially with one camera. One takes a picture of the other in front of something, then they shuffle together, exchange the camera and swap positions. They end up with two pictures, neither of which includes both of them.

Hang on, let me help out those two doing the couple shuffle over there.

cabbie shuffle

The act of performing a smooth driving move while in a car.

Derived from Chicago cab drivers performing questionable and slick moves to get through traffic faster.

After passing on the right as soon as the light turns green, getting ahead of the first car. Driver says to passenger "Cabbie shuffle baby!"

Changing lanes while cutting someone off. Yelling out the window "Cabbie shuffle!"

Zipping in a parking space front-first to steal the spot from another car. "Cabbie shuffle suck-a-duck!"

Pulling a U-turn in traffic to quickly grab a parking space on the other side of the street. "Caaaaaaaaaaaaabbie shuffle!"

The Shuffle Effect

When playing an Ipod or MP3 player on shuffle and perfect songs come on for your mood and/or situation.

"I just smoked a joint and was walking down Penny Lane, when Penny Lane by the Beatles came on my Ipod."

"Dude, the Shuffle Effect just happened to me on the way over here!"

sprinter shuffle

Designed for sprinters to feign as if they are really working during a long run or warm-up laps, but in reality are just moving their arms in perfect sprinter form, and are moving at an extremely slow pace (an easy jog). When seen from a distance, a coach will be very proud of his sprinters. This saves energy and is characteristic of all sprinters once they get smart enough to utilize this tool.

Freshman: Phew, warm-up laps suck.
Sprint Captain: You actually ran that? Fail. Learn the sprinter shuffle.
