A glimmer man (sometimes rendered as "glimmerman") was a name unofficially, but universally, applied to inspectors who were employed by coal gas manufacturers in Ireland to detect the use of gas in breach of rationing restrictioons during the Emergency (ie.

Prosecuters who would rather play guitar, and perhaps should. They keep their hairs in drilled tips to pierce the Heavens or to just make themselves feel pretty. They are fun to throw snackoos at, so do so if you see one. They also like to seduce opposing lawyers after court.
