arm swings

(n) The fatty, gelatinous, sagging skin that appears underneath the length of the arm from the shoulder down to the elbow.

Called "arm swings" for their characteristic swaying, back-and-forth motion they make whenever they are moved around.

Commonly found on: Obese adults/kids, elderly people, people who are out of shape, and anyone who loses a great deal of weight in a short amount of time.
Observer #1: "Hey, look at that fat chick power-walking. She kinda waddles like a duck."

Observer #2: "Ugh, thats not what I'm looking at. She should wear some long sleeves cause those arm swings are making me nauseous."

Arm-Swinger

An arm-swinger is someone who swings their arms widely while they walk. People who swing their arms widely while they walk are generally over-weight, and tend to walk slowly. It is likely that a wide arm-swing is needed to counter-balance their large body mass while walking.

Arm-swingers are most notable when they walk in the middle of a busy sidewalk or corridor, thus inhibiting the ability of faster, non-arm swinging pedestrians to pass them. This can lead to great frustration and general deriding of fat people when one is in a hurry.

Arm-swinger

Arm-swinger. A guest who fails to bring a gift for his or her host. An invitee who arrives at an event empty handed. So called because the offending guest's hands are unburdened with a present and so his or her arms can swing freely.
