Valediction Shuffle
The ungraceful ending of a conversation (esp. over the phone) where multiple variations of 'goodbye' are stammered, often simultaneously.
YOU: .... well okay then, I'll talk to you later.
ME: Alright, we'll see you.
YOU: Bye
ME: Later
YOU: Later
ME: Bye
BOTH: See ya
ME: Okay (click)
YOU: Bye (click)
ME: God I hate the awkward valediction shuffle.
ME: Alright, we'll see you.
YOU: Bye
ME: Later
YOU: Later
ME: Bye
BOTH: See ya
ME: Okay (click)
YOU: Bye (click)
ME: God I hate the awkward valediction shuffle.
