The origin can be traced to the phrase in past tense ("Houston, we've had a problem here") that was used by the crew of the Apollo 13 moon flight, to report a major technical problem back to their Houston base. The phrase is normally misquoted as "Houston, we have a problem" as in the movie Apollo 13: "Houston, we have a problem".

Get the Houston Shorts mug.Related Words
Instead of waiting in line for a mile or four at a congested off ramp, driving as close to the junction/barrier to the exit in a faster lane and darting ahead of the lineup when there is a large enough gap created by a transport trucker or typical Houston driver who is distracted by the bowl they are packing with one hand while texting with the other hand.
A perfectly executed Houston shuffle is when the shuffler's vehicle rear does not protrude into the previous lane, they did so without going over a solid white and/or pylons (as 12 sometimes issue tickets solely for poorly executed shuffles), and vehicles behind cannot get offended because after all they created a 4-car-legnth gap ahead of them that was ripe for a Houston shuffle.

Rochelle-Alexandria: Hey that's the line for the off ramp we need, I guess we gotta wait in line for 15 minutes.
BHSLF: Naw girl! I'll just do a Houston shuffle. Like threading a needle you just gotta find the right gap ahead of a slower or distracted homie. Then we'll hit the exit in 30 seconds instead and I won't feel bad because we are using all available space.
