Goober =
1). Peanut
2). A goofy, clueless person
3). Gomer's cousin
Here's a sad story about how twisted our society is...
My pastor back in the 90s, who is like a 2nd father to me, was originally from around the Macon, GA area, and had pastored in Savannah for many years.
One day from the pulpit he was musing about a recent youth event he'd attended and was telling the story about some silly thing one of the boys did. In his typical deep south way, he referred to Clint as a "goober."
Believe it or not, he was called on the carpet by the deacon board, stating how inappropriate it was to call someone a goober from the pulipt, as it insinuated that it was...well, you put the pieces together...
I was absolutely shocked that our deacons were that twisted.
Of course, it shouldn't have surprised me because this same group of deacons also accused him of being seen in a car with a curly headed woman that was not his wife. That "woman" turned out to be our youth pastor. [:@]
