switch stare

When you look at someone and then look away but the person you were looking at looks at you. Then it is an awkward back and forth glance that never reaches eye contact.

It was an akward switch stare for a minute

Gen Z Stare

A stare or gaze when a person, usually a millennial or older, seems to lack basic knowledge and understanding, and may have a sense of entitlement. The look usually gives off “Hoe, you can’t be serious?” “Are they being for real?” “Girl…what??” and varies from person to person, but is distinguishable.

Are the pork ribs halal?”

Stare point

A term used to describe the blank space on a table, where previously a bunch of drugs (more often than not cocaine) used to be. Sudden absence is often caused by sneezing stoners or spastically moving twats.

Derives from the baffled "staring" at said blank spot.

Adam: "I ain't shittin you, that shit of a fuck sneezed like a whale and all the shit went flying through the air. Just that stare point's left."
Bryon: "Shit."

By Definition a cat stare is a stare by another person that mimics yours. in such a way, that as you move they move to the same position. it is as if to hinder or block your vision so you only stare at that person (or cat).
