Competitive Hand Waving

1. A euphemism for decision-making based on the best sounding idea.

2. A travel game, whereby contestants traveling in an automobile time the amount of time it takes for people in other automobiles to return a hand wave. Lowest time is best.
Currently, development decision are often made in meetings on the basis of competitive hand waving, when they should be made on the basis of usability data.

Darwin Wave

A Tsunami that is too small to penetrate very far inland but large enough to kill anyone stupid enough to go down to the beach to see it.

Wave Tissue

Blowing your nose as a large wave crashes over you, therefore eliminating snot/boogers in a discreet way. Commonly used by those too lazy to just get out of the water and find a tissue.
While I was on a date with Cameron I could tell my nose was about to drip. Rather than gross him out I quickly used the Wave Tissue!
