When you attempt to give someone a
handshake and it turns into a disaster. Usually, Awkward Daps results in a three finger embrace, a
dead fish hand (from either party), or a mixture of
a pound and a handshake put together.
Dude, when I was leaving the party John tried to give me
Daps while I went for
the handshake. I met him somewhere in between; Gave him
awkward Daps and called it a night.
