nod of recognition

Harley Riders & Jeep drivers do this. Just a little nod to acknowledge one another.
I've seen the nod of recognition many a time whilst in traffic. Pretty cool!

Everything is simply a shape, a form, an identifier to let others recognize me as me! But then, what am I? Is this me? My true self? My fake self? What is it that I am? Nobody understands me! 

Don't quote this in therapy you filthy shinnie.
you know how Shinji Ikari once said: "Everything is simply a shape, a form, an identifier to let others recognize me as me! But then, what am I? Is this me? My true self? My fake self? What is it that I am? Nobody understands me!" yeah, I relate to that.

Recognize that Shit 

The concept of having to be able to recognize someone you have never met before. Make sure you write this person's name down so you can recognize them later on by their name. If you choose not to recognize that shit, then the person who wants you to recognize them will continue to shout "Recognize that Shit!" only because they want others to remember them. Although, no one really cares for recognizing such people in society.
Bloody Loco: I don give a fuck 'bout no one else in this train, BUT YOU right now.

Passenger (trying to read a book): Thank you, thank you...

Bloody Loco: You better fuckin recognize that shit ASAP! Recognize that shit A-FUCKING-SAP!

Passenger flips page.

Bloody Loco: You don't put no FUCKING fear in my heart.

Me to Bloody Loco: Sir do you need a tampon?

resonate 

when something or someone automatically as the street would say "clicks" meaning you feel and understand a situation or person without explanation.
I am on the train going to work & someone is telling their friend a story of how they were robbed and I happen to overhear the conversation UNLESS I have NEVER been robbed it will not evoke a feeling of "resonate". Now on the other hand if I had experienced being robbed It will evoke feelings of questions like why did he rob me?, anger, disappointment, anxiety, disbelief just to name a few.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
