Awkward Salmon
An act performed when the conversation has died down to the point of awkwardness. The act involves positioning your hand between the legs of anyone sitting nearby with a flat palm and slapping the hand rapidly between the thighs of
the chosen person. This supposedly represents a Salmon struggling out of water.Usually screaming "Awkward Salmon" in a slightly
deranged voice is acceptable
at this time.This usually serves to make the situation far more awkward than initially perceived.

Similar to the popular term "
Happy salmon" the
Awkward salmon is the act of placing your hand between another individual's legs and just holding it there without moving your hand back and forth in
the happy salmon motion. The
Awkward Salmon quickly escalates the awkwardness level of the happy salmon.

A move that is part of the Awkward Animal Clan, an Awkward Salmon is performed when during an
awkward situation, one puts his hands in between someone's legs, slapping them back and forth
like a fish in a move basically identical to lesser known
Awkward Trout.
Example:
Jane(in failed attempt to produce
lulz):
I think
Hitler was really a woman.
Tom(to another person present, not Jane in most cases):.... *

A gesture used to relieve the tension of an
awkward situation.
The awkward
salmon is usually performed when sitting, although it can be done standing. The person spreads his legs slightly apart and puts his hand in between them close to the knees. Then he rapidly moves his hand back and forth slapping each leg to simulate the sound of a salmon
flopping around on the ground.
The awkward salmon can become even more awkward (and a lot funnier) if a person sneaks up behind another person and performs the awkward salmon on the victim.

The
akward salmon is another member of the awkward animal clan. It is probably one of the funniest ones out there.
During an akward silence, it works just like the awkward turtle to relieve tension.
You put one hand flat and then slap the other hand onto the flat one alternating back-front-back-front etc, to
look like a fish slapping on the floor of a boat.
The sound is the best part.
Example:
So...last night I walked into my grandma and grandpa
gettin' frisky.
...silence...
Uhh....

A member of the Awkward Animal Clan, the awkward salmon is a movement performed during or after an awkward moment to relieve tension. One variety of
the motion is to place a hand another person's chin, palm down, and
wiggle the hand and fingers so as to smack the
underside of the person's chin somewhat.
