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".
Example:
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

Used on forums, chat, etc. to represent
awkwardness, or break silence. Rarely used to actually represent
coughing, unless someone is explaining how they have
the flu or something.
