lighter waving

Holding out lighters and waving them back and forth in the air during concerts.

finger wave

Originally, a women's hair style in the late 1930's and early 1040's, characterized by a series of ridges as though a hand with spread fingers was placed on the hair and then the fingers closed.

The slang definition of the term, initially attributed to the military, was used for a prostate examination as described above.

Be sure the proctologist doesn't have both hands on your shoulders when he gives you a finger wave.

Hanging Wave

When you wave to a person in passing, and they either don’t see you, or choose not to return your wave. This is very similar to when you go to high five, or fist bump someone, and you are simply left hanging...and feeling like a fool.

I’m bummed. When I was driving through my neighborhood this afternoon, I had two hanging waves.
