Abbreviation of "Ho Bag;" can be used as either a term of endearment or combined with "pros" (short for prostitute; pronounced "pross") to become the ultimate insult. (Only applies to females; for the male version, see "Hobe-lover").

Get the Hobe mug.The Star Trek reference to Kirk being called a Herbert could not have been the point when Star Trek 'jumped the shark' as the term was not coined until 1977 when the Fonz actually jumped a shark!
You are a Herbert!

Get the Herbertheperver mug.Philanthropist, economist, 31st President of the US. Great man: Terrible politician.
Saved millions of Belgians from starvation after WWI with his own money. Railed against rampant speculation as early as 1925. At this time there was no SEC to oversee Wall Street (NYSE). Wall Street was under control of the State of New York. Guess who was Governor of New York at that time? That's right; FDR. Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He encouraged speculation until the bottom fell out in 1929. Care to guess who was left holding the bag?
Hoover was now out. But for 12 years, FDR oversaw the Great Depression. It was only by entering WWII that the country was able to turn around. Not his alphabet soup programs.
Don't get me wrong; FDR was a great unifier. But Hoover's name carries a little too much burdon.
"I had to cover for Joe's mistakes. At the meeting everyone thought it was my fault and Joe was the hero. I got the Herbert Hoover from the Boss."
