Grad-nap

A sudden urge to sleep, and the immediate act of satisfying this urge - the kind only experienced by students in graduate law programs at university.
The urge occurs irrespective of caffeine intake - and is, quite dangerously, contagious.
Often brought on by the mere mention of estoppel, promissory notes, misfeasance in a public office or annotated legislation.

C: Wow, six hours of university in a row. Grad-nap?

A: For sure. I've already painted my nails and had a three-shot black coffee. It's no wonder I feel a Grad-nap coming on.

snow nap

To die or pass out in the snow. Usually many climbers who attempt to summit Mount Everest may suffer from this.

They're not rational enough to know like "if I sit down, and take just an little bitty nap, then I'm not getting back up." I'm taking a snow nap. --Jeff B. Evans

Landing nap

The irritating nap that occurs just before landing after staying awake an entire flight.

As always I suffered from a landing nap, and startled out of my seat in a less then amusing mood.

Hot nap

When you say you’re going for a nap but you’re actually going to masturbate.

Oh I had a hot nap earlier, feeling much better!

stress napping

taking multiple short naps (usually ranging from 10-30 minutes) to avoid immediate work, which often results in an unintentionally long period of rest because the time wasted by the previous nap places so much stress on the napper that he or she perceives the need to nap again

"How is your work coming along?"
"I started working last night and wanted to get two papers done before going to bed. Then I got overwhelmed so I stress napped from 9 pm until 7 am."

"I should be studying but I'm stress napping"
