verb: nod off is what happens when your eyes and brain disobey you, and begin entering hibernation mode even though you know you should be up and awake. Nodding off happens most often when you sit in a comfortable seat in the back of the room during boring classes with droning old professors. Some people are gifted with the screensaver mode, which they can turn on to cover up the fact that they have nodded off

A nod of the head similiar to the nod of acknoweldgement but can be used between any two men, not just friends. It is an unspoken greeting in which only another man nod is an appropriate response. Signifies acceptence of presence. Verbally may be interpretted as a grunt. Universal language with no ehtnic restrictions.
Bob was walking down a street in a rough neighborhood as he approached a scary looking bigger man. Thankfully the the bigger man gave Bob a man nod, which Bob returned and continued on his way.

That very special nod you get from other people which indicates that, yes, you are a total fucking moron who has failed to correctly spell the word you were aiming for once again; well done, jackass!

A member of the parliament front bench who can't stop nodding.
Something was said in parliament to the pleasure of the government the front bench nodded in agreement bloody nodding donkeys.
A succinct reply to acknowledge understanding of an obscure word or phrase after you have quickly Googled it. Better than flat out asking what something means and less arrogant than feigning previous knowledge of a subject.
Conversation via cell phone text:
Non basketball fan: "Your team, Kansas, did well today right?"
Kansas fan: "Yeah they did! Rock chalk jayhawk!"
...moment to Google the phrase...
Non basketball fan: "Google nod."
The "man nod" is an unspoken greeting when you want to acknowledge someones presence, but do not wish to start a conversation with them. The only way to answer a man nod is with another man nod, only verbal part of a man nod is usually a grunt. The man nod is great for being sort of polite even when you dont want to speak to them at all. The man nod can also be done to non men by men, and also used on strangers if your a blokey bloke.
Steve was walking down the street when he saw Fred he knew from uni coming the other way, being a bloke Steve didnt want to bother with being social so he gave Fred a quick man nod, as Fred walked past he returned Steves man nod and carried on walking.
