jugheads

Not very bright

Jugheads is a mildly insulting term for stupid or foolish people.

The jug suggests an empty container where a brain should be.

The word has a folksy, almost affectionate quality compared to harsher insults: Those jugheads forgot to lock the gate again.

Jughead is also the name of Archie's perpetually hungry best friend in the long-running comic series.
