dorkwave
When a loser or nerd waves at you, thinking he's your friend and you look away quickly pretending you did not see him. This is a very awkward moment for the nerd.
I can't believe it, I was wogging through Central Park today, and that dork Reginald from shop class saw me. Before we made eye contact, I glanced away, turning his attempt at greeting me with a hand gesture into a dorkwave. Hah, hah, I wogged in the opposite direction before he could try again!

Dorkwave (dôrk’-wav)
Origin – (dork - vulgar slang for the penis) + (wav - to make a signal with an up-and-down or back-and-forth movement of the hand or an object held in the hand)
1. Wagging one's own penis after micturating to release the last few drops of urine before zipping up one's trousers.
2. The act of grasping one's own (or other's) penis whilst holding the testes with the other hand (thereby repressing them from movement), and presenting it forcefully with an undulating motion at another's face, or at an anonymous passerby. If in an aroused state, bouncing upon one's forehead is also popular. Two simultaneous dorkwaves often results in a "swordfight."

Gerald needs to perfect his dorkwave, he's always got a wet spot on the front of his trousers when he comes back from the bathroom.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
