detroit nod

The Detroit nod is often seen in "the trenches" and more violent streets of Detroit. With Detroit being one of the murder capitals of America, any social interaction must be handled carefully. The "Detroit Nod" is a social gurantee that there are no problems and no worries. Essientially; I won't hurt you, you won't hurt me.

In Detroit: "Cuz gave me the nod so I knew he was straight"

"Why that dude nod at people like that?"

"That's the Detroit nod bro!"

the nod

The nod men give to each other for one reason or another. The Nod is never taught to men, it is a primal instinct engraved into them naturally. Given the nod to a woman leads to receiving an odd look.

Asshole Nod

That moment, when you see your boss at the office, or some old friend on the street, and the person looks you directly in the eye and nods without saying a word because they are too much of a coward to speak or apologize for being a utter douchebag at some time in the past.

Dude: "Hey bro did the bossman come talk with you?"
Me: "No dude, he just sort of gave me the Asshole Nod."

Dude: "Wtf is wrong with that guy, he's such a douche and a pussy?"
Me: "Word"
