Get the Galvanised Square Steel mug.(1) Unexciting, unadventurous, mainstream or dull. Generally used in describing a person with such attributes or who plays it safe. Historically, derived from a person whose goal in life is to have three "squares" a day (see definition (3) below), a roof over his head, a respectable job, a house, 2.5 kids, etc. Became a hip/popular expression of derision of the mainstream in the beat generation.

Get the Square mug.When using the term "square" in that context, you're emphasizing not just the rigidity or uptightness of the person, but also implying a lack of intelligence or narrow-mindedness. It's a way of criticizing someone for being closed-minded or foolish in their thinking or actions. In this usage, "square neck" would indeed be a disparaging remark implying that the person's mentality is constrained and unintelligent.
In a Conversation Among Friends:
Friend 1: "I don't understand why anyone would want to try something new. Stick with what you know, right?"
Friend 2: "Wow, what a square neck thing to say. You're really limiting yourself."
In a Workplace Setting:
Colleague 1: "We've always done it this way, and it's worked fine. There's no need to change anything."
Colleague 2: "That's such a square neck approach. We should be open to new ideas and improvements."
In a Social Media Comment Thread:
Commenter 1: "People who listen to anything other than classic rock just don't appreciate real music."
Commenter 2: "Seriously? That's the most square neck comment I've seen all day. Musical taste is subjective, dude."
Person A: "Can you believe John thinks he's so smart just because he reads a few books? What a pretentious jerk."
Person B (interrupting): "Hey, ease up. Calling someone out for trying to educate themselves is a bit square neck, don't you think? Let's encourage learning, not tear it down."
Person A: "You're just a brainwashed fool for believing in politician X's policies. Can't you see how misguided and stupid you are?"
Person B (intervening): "Hold on a second. Attacking someone's beliefs like that is beyond square neck. Just because you disagree with person's politics doesn't mean you should insult their intelligence. Let's keep this discussion civil."
