1. cretin
Congenital loser; an obnoxious person;
someone who can't do anything right. It has been observed that many
American hackers tend to favor the British pronunciation /kret´in/ over standard American
/kree´tn/; it is thought
this may be due to the insidious phonetic influence of Monty Python's
Flying Circus.
