Awkward Fist

The pose made when you have to take a photograph with a person you do not feel comfortable with, yet you are required to put your arms around him or her for the sake of a decent photograph. In this pose the hand does not grasp around like a normal embrace, but rather clenches into a fist in case you have to escape this creepy person.

"Ohmigosh, I just met the best man and he is really creepy! Do I have to take a picture with him?" - Maid of Honor
"Don't worry about it! Just use the awkward fist!" -Bride

Captain Awkward

Boys who fail to remail chill after hookups but prefer to run out of the room and pretend you don't exist.

There I was drinking a keg in Capt. Awkward's room, when the boy came in and had to leave without any more beer because of his sketchy awkwardness.

awkward turkey

Cousin to the awkward turtle (official mascot of the awkward moment) As the awkward turtle is recognized by a hand gesture, so is the awkward turkey. You hold your four fingers from one hand up behing the fist of your other hand. The hand with the fist will then stick its thumb out and wiggle it around. Go ahead, give it a try, and show it to your friends. Its awkward.

Hey lover, I have some thing to tell you, sorry I just gave you aids......At this moment you could have the awkward turkey run in.
