Penguin Wave

When one waves with his elbow at someone when he/she only has one arm partially free and lacking the full range of motion to complete a full wave.

It is a deeply meaningful gesture showcasing the depth of commitment the waver has for the wave receiver; faced against all odds of completing a true hand wave, the waver still tries and does the next best thing.

Sonic Wave

An Extreme Demon level in the video game Geometry Dash created by a user known as Cyclic and later verified by LSunix, or simply Sunix. The level features a mainly blue theme and a fast playstyle accompanied by flashing lights on sections that have the wave mode, inspired by the level Nine Circles.

The level was initially created in a lighter blue theme with the same manner of flashing lights and fast playstyle meant to rival Poltergeist, another Nine Circles level that was considered the hardest of the type of levels at the time. Shortly after the verification of Bloodbath by Riot, Sonic Wave was buffed significantly, taking on a much darker blue theme, with more detail on certain parts and the addition of several obstacles such as spikes and pillars and narrowing of hallways in the wave sections of the level. Before admitting to the speedhacking of Sonic Wave by Cyclic, he claimed to have "verified" the level. The level was considered to be too difficult to complete and Cyclic was accused of hacking Sonic Wave, to which he would later admit doing.

Both Riot and Sunix would be the two main contenders for the first person to verify Sonic Wave legitimately. Sunix would later assume this title, having taken 18 months to complete the level, making Sonic Wave among the longest levels taken to verify in Geometry Dash history.

whoopsie wave

When you wave to someone you know and another person intercepts your wave mistakenly as if you are waving to them, e.g. caught in the crossfire of your wave.
I was waving to Eddy at the show and Phil thought I was waving to him. Awkward... Phil waved back to me as he was caught in a whoopsie wave. It's almost as bad as when Jim invited me to lunch, thinking I was Tony because his phone contacts were screwed up resulting in Jim texting me with an invite.
