A phrase used in conversation to offset an insult of an absent third party. The phrase is often used as a passive-aggressive way to distance oneself from the insult that follows.

note: can also be used in the feminine.
Mo: My roommate is a nice guy, but he smells like cat piss and he's always stealing my shit!

Lester: You got that right, friend.

...

Ari: She's a nice girl, but she farts all the time and has corn-lookin' teeth!

Ola: Word.

Get the nice guy mug.
A nice guy who is someone who will repeatedly tell the girl of his wanting that is is kind and respectful of her feelings. In reality he is the opposite. He is only doing this to get you defences down. Nice guy will repeatedly try to get into your pants, or throw a fit if you don't do what he wants. If you were to ever call him out on his immature behavior he would look shocked and say "I'm a nice guy I wouldn't do that." I nice guy doesn't want to be your friend, he doesn't want anything other then for you to be his girlfriend so he wouldn't have to feel bad about himself. Most NICE GUYS are selfish creepy jerks, who don't know what I just want to be friends, mean.
Remember Guys: Nice guys don't need to remind people that they are nice and respectful. Telling people that your a nice guy is pretty much like someone saying no offence but....
NICE GUY:*leans in for a kiss*
Girl: What are you doing. I said thought that we were just friends.
NICE GUY: But I'm a nice guy, I'm not going to hurt you.
Girl: Dude? Seriously? A nice guy doesn't need to remind the girl his with that he is a nice guy. Please leave.

Get the Nice guy mug.
1. A guy who might very well get laid a ton but will never pleasure fuck someone he knows is vulnerable. A nice guy is just as capable of casual sex as anyone else but he'll give you the heads up.

2. A guy who is usually very handsome and secure enough about himself to empathize with women. He might have problems fitting in for not betraying his values but he persists.

3.A man often derided by ugly jocks and stupid girls who equate the presence of empathy in a person with an absence of confidence.

4. A very cool, profound man who often possesses great artistic gifts. He may grow up to be a rockstar and laugh in the faces of the petty little shitheads who teased him for not fitting in.

5. A man who will kick your ass just as fast as any other if you mess with him but would not dare hit his wife or girlfriend.
That cool rocker was a nice guy who was opposed to sexism with a passion. I'll be damned if he didn't kick that jock shithead's ass though...

Get the nice guy mug.
A male who claims to be nothing but nice and compassionate towards women and as a result feels he deserves acknowledgment from females but never gets any because in reality he is actually a douchebag for thinking that he is owed something just for being respectful and nice. That's called being a fucking decent human being, dummies, and no one owes you shit for that.
This guy thinks he's going to get some ass just because he's nice to me sometimes. What a stereotypical nice guy.

Get the nice guy mug.
The type of man preferred by normal, psychologically healthy women, such as those who inhabit places like Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. However, the nice guy gets little play from modern Western women, due to them being deranged, mentally ill skanks who enjoy being used and abused by creeps and players.
Nice guys *do* get laid--just not by mentally ill skanks like most modern Western women are.
