A nap that a dad takes instead of going to bed, usually because he's too lazy to move and too proud to admit he's a failure.

Dad: "I'm not napping. I'm just resting." (He's been in the recliner since dinner.)

Mom: "He took a dad nap instead of going to bed."

Dad: "I'll be up in 5 minutes." (It's 2:00 AM.)
