Ahhhhhh. Thank you! And nowhere near as sordid as I'd suspected.
Carl-E:
Actually, the term had an earlier meaning associated with selfies of distorted - um - tails. The only example I could find was here. It's relatively work safe.
Relatively.
And it seems it was mostly only in Russia, for a brief period about 7 years ago.
The fact that I recall hearing about it on this discussion board says more about my not knowing when to leave a party than anything else...
Pilchard123:
Huh, I was thinking more of the expression 'chasing tail'.

Note that the loon's posture (in addition to reflecting Gavia's normal clothing choice) is similar to this one, which comes with the caption below.
"The dance of the loon (Gavia immer) is a sign of extreme agitation. It is generally combined with frantic calls and is one of the last defense actions available to loons."
TinPenguin:
I am pleasantly surprised by the depth of ornithology being put into this comic.
