recognotion

The awkward feeling you recognize someone but can't remember from where.

Jeremy had a recognotion he should know her from somewhere but couldn't place her, so, being an awkward social penguin he said nothing.

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!

retro recognition

When you re watch an old tv episode or film and recognise someone who you now know as a famous person/character.

Oh my God it's Oberyn Martell in Buffy the vampire slayer, and he looks so young!

Retro recognition can also be pretty much guaranteed by watchingt any old episode of tales from the crypt.

Reconation

A word made up by Community Corrections jabberwalkies. It has no definition other than the one found here. The word is used to cause a person to question their own thinking.

Mark wants to break us using moral reconation therapy, but he can't.

Western Recognition

A term used by kpoppies in a poor attempt to soothe their crippling ego. It is often used to differentiate Validation from Recognition, despite meaning the same thing.

Person A: "We don't need Western Validation. We have Western Recognition instead."

Dictionary: "Actually, they're synonyms of each other, but here's an A for effort."
