Started in a
high school in Arizona, where there was a girl who just had nubs for arms. We called her "nubs". The word became
popular in our group for something
lame and failing at life.
Not pertaining or related to the word n00b or gaming.
Zach: I have TiVo and all I record on it is King of the Hill.
Bryan: Shut up you nub. (Followed by a
pimp slap)
Alex: Fuckin nub.
-or-
Alex: Man, that band that played at our school sucked.
Bryan: Yeah, they really need to
stop with all that nubbery.
