Zhlubb is, I believe, a Yiddish term, but not of endearment.
I'm not sure what the actual definition is (many Yiddish words cannot
be precisely translated into English). However, based on the context
in which my parents used the term (generally on my brother and me when
we were growing up), I believe it means a lazy, sloppy, slowmoving
person.

- Richard M(ilhous) Zhlubb - does his name have a meaning in any
slavic/semitic/turkic language? And/or does it relate to Glubb Pasha
or the producer Golub?
