palmrenthesis

In conversation, the cupping of the hands inward to indicate an interjected explanatory or qualifying remark in a sentence. Similar to the "air quote."

"I finished watching The Sting ::put up palmrenthesis:: which is an amazing movie, btw ::put down palmrenthesis:: when I realized I'd done no studying for my exam tomorrow so I'm totally screwed."

or,

"That pretentious asshole used palmrenthesis when he was telling me a story!"

Implied Parenthesis 

A term consistantly used by stubborn mathematically challenged morons who don't even know the order of operations.

Typically used as a defense when such people fail to answer a multi-part equation, and don't feel like admitting their mistake.

When a person uses this term they are basically saying that there should have been brackets surrounding certain parts of a math equation.

Person 1: What does "2 + 3 x 4" equal?

Person 2: 20!

Person 3: No it's 14, learn your order of operations.

Person 2: No! It's supposed to be read as "(2 + 3) x 4". Implied Parenthesis noob!

Person 3: If that were true then the entire order of operations would be untrue.

Person 2: IMPLIED PARENTHESIS!!!11!

Parenthesis Face 

Any person, usually an elderly individual, whose facial creases create the shape of parenthesis on either side of their lips.
These "parenthesis" run from the base of one's nostrils to the chin line, placing one's mouth within a set of parentheses.
It is a very unattractive feature, and usually causes one to appear puppet-like, with the chin and lower lip creating the lower part of a puppet's mouth.
Usually obnoxious, rude, obtrusively religious ex-English, now-substitute (sometimes single-school exclusive) teachers possess such a trait.

That parenthesis face really said "God bless you and save you" when I sneezed!
I can't believe she doesn't know how to look through her glasses instead of over them!
