What Exactly is a Dweeb??
« on: May 19, 2000, 02:52:00 PM »
Thought I had it figured out, but everytime I read a new post somebody uses it in a different context. Now, how's a pilot suppose to work his way to Dweebden without the criteria to follow

I have a simple rule to define a dweeb:

A dweeb is anyone who does not agree with my opinion or action.

The Book of Dweeb (Warbirds)
 http://www.nitro.co.za/warbirds/BoD.html

======================

Roget's Dictionary

dweeb (dwb)
n. Slang

A subservient person; a flunky.
A despised person.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Origin unknown.]

======================

WordNet (r) 1.6 :

  dweeb
       n : a person of unquestioning obedience [syn: flunky, flunkey,
            stooge, yes-man]

=======================

Roget's Thesaurus, on the reference book's new entries.  The updated dictionary of English synonyms now lists "dweeb," "saddo," "geek," "anorak" or "trainspotter" under boring person, and "Lunch box" and "dangly bits" under genitalia.

You should ask the original dweeb: Tone

http://www.dweebsofdeath.com/"" TARGET=_blank>Dweebs of Death

This man has dedicated himself to maintaining the dweeb code of honor: "Death before dishonor... often just moments before."

I didn't see reference to the other motto for DoD: "We fly so that others may kill".

 If you can relate to any of these stories on this web page...
 http://lone1.home.mindspring.com/scav/scavhome.htm

 ...you are a dweeb.

 "Dweeb" does not always have a negative connotation. Nor is it just necesarily a belittling adjective that gets tossed around casually.    Sometimes being a dweeb is a good thing. Especially if you frequently find  that you go "diving down."

thanks funked & cleaner!  

I read the Book of Dweeb a few days after I first downloaded Warbirds before I signed up for an account.


I read the whole damn thing straight through and signed up a platinum account the next day  


Verse Five
Thus was begat....the HA Dweeb. The HA dweeb left the flocks of the orthodox dweeb for a icon-forsaken land known as the Historical Arena. Ye may also know it as the HA. And there the dweebs fought many fewer dweebs like themselves. And the dweebs flew above 5K feet. And the dweebs executed historical bounces, as their dweebish victims failed to divine their approach. And the dweebs did tempt the dweebs of the Main Arena, that they might join the HA dweebs. And, lo, the HA grew. And bombers did begin to appear. And Dortmund and Essen and Frankfurt did once again cower under an umbrella of dweebs: hard-turning Spits and slashing Focke Wulfs. Agile P-38s and crafty 109s. And the dweebs partook of flight without the holy icon of iMOL and saw that it was good.

Curious as to what I'd find with a search engine; I hammered 'Dweeb' in and hit enter. This came up.
 

I'm much relived.
