the nods 

"The Nods" is a state which every narcotic user (especially heavy narcotics, such as heroin) yearns for.

It is the state in which you drift in and out of conciousness for possibly several hours on end, and is associated with the state of "nirvana".

It's literally to the point where you feel so good you don't care if you are are asleep or awake, because you'll feel great anyway

When a person has "the nods" they feel very, very good, and is typically, after a "rush" the second favorite thing on any junkie's "to do" list after using narcotics.

It's basically every junkie's dream.
Damn! I can't believe that guy cought the nods off just 20mg of oxycontin.

The Nods 

"The Nods" is characterized by a person who drank heavily the night before, the person will typically wake up and they're head will move in a back and forth motion, sometimes uncontrollably. "The Nods" are usually accompanied by heavy cocaine use.

1 Cialis and 2 cups of water will usually make symptoms go away. If your Nods last more then 3 hours, Call your doctor right away.

The Nodsy 

I’d love to go tonight but The Nodsy is making me too tired and sleepy
Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.
Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
