This is the mascot for an awkward moment.

It is done by placeing your hands on top of each other, and spining your thumbs forward in a circular motion. This creats the creature know as awkward turtle.

Unlike American sign language this actually is the sign for turtle in British sign language.

The universal symbol of the awkward moment, made by placing one open hand over another and wiggling the thumbs around in a circle to imitate a turtle turned on its back. Awkward!

this is the same as your regular awkward turtle except one will flip his hands upside down. this creates a turtle as though it were on its back and unable to move. this may only be used in super awkward moments which happen very rarely in life.
telling a mom joke in a group to someone who's mom is actually dead, and the only person that doesn't know his mom is dead is the joke teller. this situation would invite you to use the super awkward turtle.
