Awkward Attempt at Sexy Times 

Awkward Attempt at Sexy Times (AAST) is when your sexual overtures are rejected due to inappropriateness of situation or setting. The key difference between AAST and being creepy is that in this case the object of your affections does not feel threatened or in any way afraid of you. They just think you're pathetic.
You and your new girlfriend stopping by at your ex*'s house unannounced to ask if she'd like to go get a drink with you all. This is an Awkward Attempt at Sexy Times.

*Bad break-up and someone you're not friends with now.

awkward bull 

Performed by making the "I love you" sign in sign language, only resting the thumb on the middle and ring finger.
To indicate an awkward moment, the person does the above motion, only wiggling the off and on the middle and ring fingers, and then suddenly stretches the thumb out toward the area where the awkward moment has just occurred.
If the awkward moment was caused by a greatly disliked the person, the person will instead recoil their fingers quickly, making a garbled disgusted noise.
"The awkward bull, since it is not as well-known, better orchestrates an awkward moment than the awkward turtle."
