Next time you are looking for a pejorative for lawyer, you might try one of these:
Nigmenog;
Bowyer: or
Snaffler.
How did I learn of these words? A world famous lawyer was once called them. Specifically, Charles Schulz used them in a Peanuts comic strip on this date in 1981. You can read the strip here. A snaffler is one who purloins by devious means. A nigmenog is a silly or incompetent person. I am not sure tell why a bowyer-evidently a maker of bows-is an insult for lawyers but I assume that Mr. Schulz knew what he was talking about.
