Slow Clap

A slow clap is when something climactic happens and a lone person acknowledges it by clapping, slowly at first, then faster and faster as people start joining in, and the clapping builds in intensity and loudness. A slow clap is the Hollywood movie cliche that you most want to experience in real life. You’ve always harbored a secret desire to witness something amazing or inspirational just so you can start a slow clap. You’ve probably tried it at least once. Maybe at your sister’s wedding to mixed results. It will happen. You just got to recognize your moments and seize your opportunities. I did a successful slow clap at a funeral once. It was the highlight of my day.
