Interesting.
I suppose you began using this word years ago, down home in Louisiana, right?
It's a common word down there.
You're fooling nobody, asshole.
BTW ... Since you're such a hochim, why don't you tell me the names of the letters that spell this longtime part of your lexicon.
Why don't you regale us with the legend of the Golem? I'm sure you've told it around that "t" shaped campfire, bubba.
Don't start no shit. Won't be no shit.

Etymology
The word
golem is used in the Bible to
refer to an embryonic or incomplete substance. Psalm 139:16 uses the word גלמי, meaning my unshaped form, which then passed into Yiddish as goylem.
The Mishnah uses the term for an uncultivated person: "Seven characteristics are in an uncultivated person, and seven in a learned one", Pirkei Avos 5:9 in the Hebrew text (English translations vary). Similarly,
golems are often used today as a metaphor for brainless lunks or entities who serve man under controlled conditions, but are hostile to him in others. Similarly, it is a Yiddish slang insult for someone who is clumsy or slow.

Came across the word while reading some years ago: was it in Germany, Korea, Afghanistan, Panama, Wisconsin, California, Texas, Kansas, Louisiana, etc., -- who remembers such things? Never had call to use the word before, but 'Golem' defines you to a "Mr. T-S", Assup the jackass: you are uncultivated, hostile and dumb as animated piss and shit!
