JOBBERNOWL


Meaning of JOBBERNOWL in English

A stupid fellow. A blockhead. Not a neologism, but a good word nonetheless. The website given sends out a newsletter; this cool word was in a recent one. Example: Only a jobbernowl would quote from the World Wide Words newsletter without reproducing the copyright notice...and the paragraph granting permission to reproduce...and also getting prior permission for quoting online on a web page. Wonder if anyone's ever screwed up on that one?
