Round of applause

The act of giving many people chlamydia.

Dude#1: I heard she got the clap
Dude#2: better spread the word before she gives a round of applause

don’t applaud a fish for swimming

Don’t praise somebody for doing something that they simply should have been doing in the first place.

T: ‘My boyfriend didn’t cheat on me!’
Don’t applaud a fish for swimming Tiffany. You’re praising a guy who’s doing nothing more than treating you like a decent human being.

Pelican's Applause

This ambiguous sound can be noticed when a rather large person's double, triple, or quadruple chin has accumulated enough mass to slap against their neck, creating a subtle clap-like noise that is produced by the movement of their jaw while eating or sometimes talking. Sometimes mistaken for lip-smacking, if you are chubby enough to have a pelican's applause, you might as well just keep eating because your ass will never be thin.

Roseanne Barr is so lazy she just flaps her jaw for her Pelican's Applause instead of exerting the energy to move her arms at awards shows.

The Applause

There are two females and two males involved. Each female has four on the floor facing opposite directions. Each male is on his knees back to back. Both males simultaneously pork the respected females from behind. The clapping sounds made from male to female and male to male (thats why your back to back) creates an applause.
Warning: do not try with clap-on lamps

Bro, "the applause" we got last night was fantastic.

Colossal Applause

A phrase coined by the infamous engineer, Cameron Vant, on March 3rd, 2016 that describes the awkward feeling a driver experiences while entering or immediately after entering a vehicle when coming to the conclusion that the passenger doors did not unlock; especially after repeated attempts to unlock the door, usually remotely. The phrase derives from the feeling a gladiator would experience in a large, audience-filled coliseum after a poor performance; usually a feeling of embarrassment, shame, or stupidity. Often times after such an incident, the passengers would ridicule the drivers actions by use of a sarcastic applaud; similar to a displeased crowd demanding the observing emperor to signal for the gladiator’s death.

The antonym of colossal applause is “chariot’s itch”. See “chariot’s itch”.

Listen guys, I don’t need to hear your “colossal applause”, let's just go.
