Noun
1. 
knucklehead – a stupid person; these words are used to express a low opinion of someone’s intelligence 1 Every now and again someone comes up to me and a conversation ensues about some knucklehead.
2 God knows there’s no shortage.
3 I always find myself laughing, because certain people are just knuckleheads, pure and simple.
4 For example, Dr. Phil is a knucklehead.
5 Don’t know why. He actually has good advice for people, and seems pretty well-adjusted. But he’s a knucklehead.
6 Don’t know why.
7 Tom Cruise isn’t a knucklehead. He’s just stupid.
8 It really made me wonder what the qualifications are for a pure knucklehead, and what the difference is between a knucklehead and someone who’s just stupid, slow of study in a Shakespearean manner.
9 For example, does anybody argue that Curly is clearly the biggest knucklehead of the Stooges?
10 As stupid as Moe is, we consider him the leader. Yes, to a degree all 3 Stooges are clearly knuckleheads, but we’re talking about a pure knucklehead.
11 Larry is hilarious, make no mistake. A knucklehead of the highest degree, but again, Curly emerges as a pure knucklehead for reasons we may never understand.

KNUCKLEHEAD!

17 There’s a certain something.
18 Some got it, some ain’t.
19 Anyway, you should try your hand at it.
20 Who gets YOUR vote? These were just a few random candidates, and not a serious collection.
