When you take a drag of a cigarette and blow the smoke into his/her butthole. He/She then bends over, putting both hands and both feet flat on the floor, with butt straight up in the air, the smoke is tooted out, creating a beautiful North Dakota Smoke Signal.
Zach was being annoying so I bent him over and forced him to do a North Dakota smoke signal yesterday.

Get the north dakota smoke signal mug.When you lay opposite of another person sharing a blanket, usually on a couch, feet to feet (long distance signals) or head to feet (short distance signals). You begin to pass gas under the blanket, then you lift the blanket slowly and rapidly pull the blanket back down causing your smoke signal to exit the other side. It usually takes a couple tries to get your message across.

Get the Smoke Signals mug.It is when you somehow manage to turn off wireless capability while surfing the internet on a laptop. Then you go around frantically checking all wires to make sure they're connected. Hours later you realize, after searching that you had pressed the button that is placed so far on the keyboard you don't understand how it got pressed.
I was so scared that my internet was cut off that I trouble shooted for hours. Then I looked to see that wireless capability was turned off.
I was glad it was just a signal frantic.

Get the Signal Frantic mug.The act of signalling exclusivity or secrecy, even when there’s no substantial reason. It mimics in-group dynamics to create a heightened sense of importance, often leaving outsiders feeling excluded, even when the content is trivial.
Super-signalling can be thought of as a kind of unintentional gaslighting. The term comes from the 1938 play Gas Light, where a man drives his wife to the brink of insanity by gradually dimming the lights in their apartment while pretending that nothing has changed.
Super-signalling operates similarly, although more subtly. There’s really nothing there, yet our very human Fear Of Missing Out is triggered. While gaslighting is deliberate, super-signalling is often unconscious—those engaging in it are likely unaware of the (super) signals they’re transmitting.
The behaviour is rampant on social media. Vague status updates, cryptic tweets, or ‘stories’ that hint at something significant without revealing any details are the digital equivalent of those whispered huddles. They tap into our instinct to belong, leaving us wondering what we’ve missed.
The same is true for airy corporate slides with conspicuous stamps of saying “CONFIDENTIAL,” when it’s apparent that they contain little of substance.
Or scientific presentations where heavy smoke screens of technical jargon obscure the fact that the subject being studied is actually quite inconsequential.
As Gertrude Stein once quipped: “There’s no there there.”
