In a case of an awkward situation, just bust out an awkward porcupine and everything will be alright.
To whip this out first
interlock your fingers
then shoot your interlocked fingers up so they are still interlocked but straight like a porcupine.
While you make this transition make a "swuieesh" sound

When a person acts prickly and unfriendly towards another in a potentially romantic situation based on awkwardness and self-protection. Though person A likes person B a lot, they are afraid to show it and try to look cool by acting aloof and busy.
Don't worry, he's going porcupine because he's socially immature and intimidated by you. Give him some encouragement and he'll lighten up.

Guy 1: Hey man, are you going to win your basketball game today?
Guy 2: Well, I haven't been practicing much. Like that matters, though, because the opposing team isn't too good.
Guy 1: It's porcupine time, baby!

The Porcupine Effect
The Porcupine Effect is defined as the behavior that is modeled when a person within a relationship or system anticipates the need for self defense due to frequent reoccurrence of the experience of psychological pain/rejection in that system or relationship. This presents itself in a overly (more than usual) cautious approach where people’s natural initiative and leadership is restricted. Behavior is adapted to be more protective than usual.

The Porcupine Effect is when a person's behavior is adapted to be more protective than usual for example in the work place: confirm verbal discussions through a written email summary, or refrain from taking decision on their own but instead put their ideas in writing as a proposal, or only act on their decision once it has been approved by the group. This leads to a psychological energy drain to build defense instead of using your inherent creative and leadership potential. An extreme example of this behavior in highschool is where the behavior turns into avoidance of the person causing the psychological pain such as when two friends hide in the hallway or washroom from a third person who inflicts the pain.
