The action of holding both arms out in upside down 90 degree angles (like a cactus with upside down arms ๐ŸŒต) during an awkward or uncomfortable situation when you donโ€™t know how else to respond. Usually paired with an uncomfortable smile ๐Ÿ™ƒ. This is especially used by socially awkward people.
Friend: you look cute today.
Me: ๐ŸŒต๐Ÿ™ƒ
