conversation-continuing crouch

Refers to the humorous-looking but gentlemanly maneuver that you perform when you hafta pass between two people who are speaking with each other, but you still wanna maintain your momma's oft-admonished politeness-directive of "don't stand between two people when they're talking"; what you do as you approach the pair, therefore, is to hastily stoop down far below head-height and then speedily slitther your way through between the two conversers, so that they can continue talking and maintaining eye-contact "over your head". Again, employing the "triple-C" can indeed appear amusing to observers, but they will still be grateful to you for your showing them this extra measure of etiquette, especially if their conversation was rather tense/involved/emotional, they were in a hurry to finish speaking and be on their way, etc.
My local commercial-fishing buddies are fairly causal-minded and know me quite well, but I am sure they still appreciate my always practicing the conversation-continuing crouch whenever I hafta pass between them during a chat.
