cough cough is used to subtly imply that you know something that someone else doesn't. The person who it is "used on" will then begin to suspect something is suspicious with the phrase "cough cough" and will begin to wonder what it means. Mostly, "cough cough" is pronounced as a word, instead of being actually "coughed out".
Harry: "Hey, I heard Sue went out with Mark"
BoB: "oh yeah, cough cough"
Harry: *wdf, does he know something that I don't? Holy crap he's H@Rd<0R3*

The act of semi-discretely littering in a way that looks as though accidentally dropping the trash while suddenly and deeply coughing.

When you want to attack someone in the middle of the night at a sleepover. Ex. With Silly sting, shaving cream, etc.
Last night when my friends slept over, Morgan and I decided to Cough Cough O'clock Adam. We sprayed him with silly string while he was sleeping! It was great.
