an awkward silence is a moment when everything suddenly goes quiet and it feels awkward. Some people say that for every awkward silence, there is a gay baby born.

Wow there was just an awkward silence for this means a gay baby was born.

Awkward Raptor 

When the sign language for "awkward" is combined with pretending to be a dangerous dinosaur which has tiny arms and walks on two legs. The posture of the body is crucial. One must bend the knees, and arch the back, while walking. To do the sign for awkward extend your thumb, index, and middle finger, forming an L with your left hand. Do this with both hands on a flat plane in front of you, pointing with both hands at about a 45 degree angle. For extra emphasis, curl each finger a bit! The Awkward Raptor is used in moments of extreme awkwardness, and is five times more badass than using any non-extinct animal.

When Timmy, Gigi, and Rebecca bumped into their philosophy professor at a hookah bar where he was making out with their old sunday school teacher, they all immediately turned around and did the Awkward Raptor.

Awkward Baby Turtle 

This is derived from the original "Awkward Turtle". This is a hand gesture performed in the occurence of an awkward moment, usually defined by a long silence. In this particulare motion, the hands are placed on top of each other (as in "Awkward Turtle") and the thumbs are pointed outward and circling forward. Next, to create the "baby turtles", the hands are pounded together and separated and then shaped into smaller "turtles" with the both pinkies and thumbs out and circling forward once more.

Francine: Britney Spears is definitely a great role model for the American girl...
Marina, Kelly, and Tamra: ... (Silence and stares)
Kelly: AWKWARD BABY TURTLE!!

Awkward DeNiro 

When you bang the bejesus out of the homely office secretary after getting tanked in front of the whole office staff. This makes for extremely awkward and uncomfortable situations every time you avoid eye contact with her in the office and everyone else laughs like a hyena behind your back.

Did you hear? Colin pulled an Awkward DeNiro with the secretary last night. What a flaming douche bag!

Awkward Arm Swing 

1. The act of swinging one's arm like a pendulum in the presence of an awkward situation. Bend at the elbow, and let hang.

awkward dad moment 

When a person's father says something inappropriate or uncomfortable in front of their child. This most commonly happens in front of the child's friends when they are a teenager or grown-up.

Dad: "So, anyway I found out she likes it when I shoot it on her face. It happened on accident of course, but it ended up being a good thing."

Kid 1: "Sick dad! That's my mom! What an awkward dad moment."

Kid 2: "Whoa dude your dad is a freak!"

awkward chuckle  

A polite gesture used to make a bad joke less awkward. But, in turn, creates an increasingly more awkward situation.

Often used at small cocktail gatherings with not enough hard liquor available, and weddings with cash bars.

At Uncle Grayson's funeral, Marly told that completely innapropriate joke that caused the awkward chuckle to ripple throughout the room.
