The act of oral sex, hinted to in my own definition of gooseneck. A direct reference to the head of the female bouncing up and down around the cock-al region of a male during fellatio, resembling a bobblehead doll after its head has been tapped.
An employee who, having fought the powers-that-be repeatedly, and has been beaten down repeatedly, who is now reluctantly-but-resignedly following the company line in a drone-like fashion. The visual is of someone nodding up-and-down to whatever is asked of them, putting in time until either retirement or a better job comes along, while silently thinking, "If that's what they want, that's what they're gonna get - and nothing more!"
Definitely not an ass-kisser.
1) After being an acting team leader and temporary supervisor for two years, Harry was passed over for promotion - again -and now no matter what happens he just sits there like a bobblehead agreeing with every stupid idea from the adminisphere.
2) I've got three years to go to retire - I'm just going to sit here like a bobblehead and keep going "yep, uh-huh, whatever you say" - as long as they keep sending me my paycheck!
Racial slur for Indian people because when they affirm what is being said they bobble their head from side to side. In American culture, this behavior looks similar to someone shaking their head to denote "no", so there can be some confusion as the Indian head shaking actually is a positive affirmation in their own culture.
When I asked the bobblehead cashier at 7-11 if they sold slurpees, he shook his head which meant "yes."
