Such as halitosis is for bad breath. This definition is used to define a horrible social mishap in which the yield is a terribly awkward silence and embarrassment as a result of said silence. Can be confused with word vomitting. Often used as a failed attempt of levity. Used in Say Anything's song on their new album named Say Anything- "She Won't Follow You."

Noble (to crowd): "I can smell this guy's social halitosis from here."
