A type of prank calling which originated within a small communtity of phreakers called the Phone Losers Of America. The point is to tie the word "cactus" into the prank call as many times as possible without sounding like a prank call.

The correct way to addess two or more cactus plants. Addressing them as cacti is no longer acceptable as upon hearing this the cactuses feel unloved; cactuses like to be treated as individuals.

The action of holding both arms out in upside down 90 degree angles (like a cactus with upside down arms 🌵) during an awkward or uncomfortable situation when you don’t know how else to respond. Usually paired with an uncomfortable smile 🙃.
This is especially used by socially awkward people. Also known as: the awkward cactus
