Nob and Knob

Correct me if I'm wrong. Isn't a nob a well dressed member of the aristocracy?

The term people usually want on here is "Knob", a protuberance, aka penis, aka twat. People should get this straight in my opinion.

I agree and it always annoys me when I see it written incorrectly. I love knob as an insult. It is so satisfying to say.

Thanks for answering. I was hoping to find a kindred spirit.

I hadn't seen this dodgy spelling on anyone's list of things to grumble about. I thought I would come up with something new to enjoy being pedantic about, instead of the usual suspects.
