the standard method of managing how two people place their elbows in a movie theater or other seating area with only one armrest between each pair of seats. Usually involves one person's elbows placed on the front of the rest, and the other's on the back.
Guy 1: At the movies last night the guy next to me's elbows kept hitting mine!

Guy 2: Bummer, sounds like he had poor elbow etiquette.
