Butterfinger
Flaky peanut bar
Butterfinger is someone who drops things, especially in sports—a player who can't hold onto a catch or a pass: Nice job, butterfinger.
The word mocks clumsy handling, as if the person's fingers were slippery with butter.
Often used in the plural: butterfingers.
Butterfinger is also a brand of candy bar with a crispy peanut butter center.
