When something occurs that makes everybody stop talking and pay attention to the situation. Usually funny and very embarrassing. Can happen in a large group or a small intimate setting. Usually has something to do with racism.
Here is a perfect example of random acts of silence
Background noise from party
Becky: This party is awesome.
Ray: Yeah its alright. Its a little dark in here though, if you know what I mean?
Becky: I could ask him to turn the lights up.
Ray: I mean there are a lot of coons in here.
Record stops and everybody stops talking and looks
