Re: Jon O'Neill is a nob
What I find interesting is that nearly 70% of the letters of the word NOB feature in the name Jon O'Neill.

Re: Jon O'Neill is a nob
I was just thinking how good it was that Charlie spelt it "nob", which is the proper way. I mean, in the dictionary I think it says "knob", but it was never that way at school. It's just "nob". There's no point in a dictionary trying to give a word like that a formal spelling.Matt Morrison wrote:I think anyone who spells knob nob is a knob.

Re: Jon O'Neill has a nob
How can you put a silent letter in such a juvenile word? Knob seems so formal. Nob is the only way to spell it.

Another niner for Adam and yet another century. Well done, that man."

Re: Jon O'Neill is a nob
I always thought a "nob" meant "aristocrat" or "posh cunt" and that the correct spelling (in the penile sense) was "knob". In fact I'm pretty sure I'm right, as the word "knob" (in the penile sense) was coined by the 4th Earl of Burscough, who had his penis replaced with a wooden doorknob following an accident with a Spinning Jenny.Gavin Chipper wrote:I was just thinking how good it was that Charlie spelt it "nob", which is the proper way.
