This morning I was beating my n00b head against the wall, trying to track down a problem with my Dreamhost account. I read this --
Troubleshooting the Infamous 500 Internal Server Error

Fudd
Slang term for a "casual" gun owner; eg; a person who typically only owns guns for hunting or shotgun sports and does not truly believe in the true premise of the second amendment.

Well, we tossed this around last night, and I think in the States it'll never catch on as an acceptable alternative. Too close to "fuddy-duddy" and "Elmer Fudd" for us to sound as mean and scathing as we'd want, compared with the awful word we already have and use as a workhorse character insult.
