A person who occasionally pisses you off, but at the end of the day you still love them. They're usually your best friend who makes fun of you from time to time. Dingus can be used as a comment when they irritate you, or in a few cases, it can be endearing.

No Susan he’s breadcrumbing you just so you’ll keep nibbling at his heels.
