Editor's Note: I thought Mel Brooks, a Jew, made up the word Shmuck, and a couple years ago he said people weren't using it enough, that it might go extinct.

I think it also includes a meaning of "nerd".

I always liked "Gomer" and "Goober." A "Barney Fife" is a Smokey with the shakes. Hey isn't that the primary line up? (Dragnet.)

"Dweeb" is heard frequently in both the Midwest and the Mountain West. As for "Shmuck," I was in the room once when this word was used and a Jewish man said, "You should look that word up. You won't use it again if you do." I looked it up. I'm glad it wasn't one of MY pet words . . . .
