Get the Boston Salutemug. A way to kiss the judge's ass on a Christmas dance show to win some stupid fuckin TV Christmas dance competition.
At least the group that went before that last group of posers didn't salute the judge, and they even made a few people laugh in the process, even if they didn't get the judge's votes. Winning isn't everything though.

Get the Salute the Judgemug. Greeting another individual while walking towards each other, but doing so when there is still an abundant amount of walking space to be covered before passing each other. This untimely greet is usually very awkward, but can be saved by a brief conversation concerning issues such as weather, sports, or work.
Josh- I ran into a co-worker today downtown, but it was extremely awkward, because I said hello 20 feet away from him.
Colton- Oh, do you mean you became a victim of Premature Salutation?

Get the Premature Salutationmug. The situation in which you say goodbye to someone, believing that you are about to part ways, only to discover that the person is actually going in the exact same direction as you. This results in a lingering sense of awkwardness as you decide whether or not to restart the conversation.
After wishing each other well and promising to reconnect soon, Nick and Varun started walking the same way. There was an uncomfortable silence for around 30 seconds. "Wow, I sure hate premature salutations!" exclaimed Varun. "Yeah..." chuckled Nick nervously.

Get the German salutemug. Placing your windshield wipers up off of the windshield in preparation for a snow storm expected to make your vehicle difficult to wipe down. Having the wipers up prevents them from being iced in places and streamlines the process of scraping your car.

Or
Walking down the street in a snow storm in January, Peter all of the cars parker along the street with their wipers up in a Salute to the Snow God.
