Hmmmmm. Considering my geography teacher is out of his mind with homework, I should be able to figure that out. Oh well. I'm probably not supposed to know the word anyway.
Every time one of my friends says something and I don't respond for like, 10 seconds, they think it's an awkward silence. It's usually just that I wasn't paying attention.
This goes in a category with awkward starfish and awkward turtle. This one is executed by putting your hands on either side of your head with the thumbs touching the sides and being very, very silent. We all use this in school. (But I invented it.)
Calvin (Bill Waterson) at one point sets up a good advice booth. He gives out good advice for 25 cents. Some of his "good advices" were "go soak your head" and "buy some more!"
I thought this was the word for when you're trying to remember a word, and it's on the tip of your tongue, and this whole while you've forgotten to breathe, so you feel like you're suffocating from lack of word. (I get that a LOT)
They say this is a Russian expression for "tsk tsk," but I think it sounds more like one of those tiny little white dogs that are nocturnal and spend the most part of their night yapping.
