For the confused, like I was:

Smack your hands against your body repeatedly, mainly the torso to chest area, and continue to smack hands on body and say "hambooooniiinngggg" in Rigby's voice from Regular Show.

Rigby: HAMBONINGGGG Mordecai: No... Rigby: HAMBONING WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE ONE DAY!!!! It'll be like "what! you tried to mug me?" proceeds to hambone for 20 seconds Mordecai: NO! We're not doing that, okay!? Okay!? Rigby: Fine...

For added context:

Hamboning is another name for the traditional dance called the Juba Dance or Pattin Juba. It was originally from Haiti and was invented by slaves as a way to make music without any access to other instruments.

Later a nickname came into being and it became "popular" again with a wider audience because of kids media like The Regular Show and The SpongeBob Movie.
