A more politically correct term for the phrase
douche bag. Nearly the same in meaning, the term doober can refer to someone that is a
douche bag, but that you feel more inclined to be nicer to. For example, someone you see on a regular basis - like a neighbor - that you wouldn't want to be on awful terms with, and is a bit goofy, but in a bad way.
The term doober also is a slight variation of the word
goober which pretty much gives a self-explanatory mental image of someone automatically fitting this profile.

creep."
Drew: "
Yeah, sorry he scared you. I had to invite him since he lives down the street. He's a bit of a doober."
