A distant relative to the Irish goodbye, the Batman goodbye is the art of leaving without a word—but only when you’re hanging out with just one other person.
It’s the same sudden, silent exit, but on a more intimate, one-on-one scale, leaving the other person wondering if you were ever really there at all.

when you are at a social function with a mixed company of friends and strangers and when it comes time for you to leave, you take a drink from a strangers glass right before leaving. Preferably this will happen as you are saying goodbye to everyone and the attention is on you.
I was down at the bar when I noticed how late it was, so rushed out of the bar and accidentally Robertson goodbye-ed. So today I'm pretty sick. :/

A Persian Goodbye is when you spend 3 hours saying bye to everyone at the mehmooni, get all the way to the door, and then end up going back in for more chai.

The Portuguese Goodbye refers to a parting of ways that unfolds in stages over tens of minutes, typically involving different people taking turns reviving and extending a conversation that only appears to all non-Portuguese participants as having already reached its natural conclusion.
The way my Portuguese in-laws say goodbye after Sunday dinner typically takes 30 minutes from the first 'we need to go' to the rest of the family encircling their car in the driveway to wave at them while they disappear over the horizon - "the portuguese goodbye" par excellence.

"The Portuguese Goodbye" refers to a parting of ways that unfolds slowly over tens of minutes, typically involving different people taking turns reviving and extending a conversation that appears to all non-Portuguese participants as having already reached its natural conclusion.
"I learned about the Portuguese Goodbye by watching my in-laws take 30 to 45 minutes to say goodbye to one another at conclusion of Sunday dinners."
