Here's an interesting word that's worth adding to your vocabulary--schmo, which means a boob or a jerk.
"Al Capp (born Caplan), the cartoonist and originator of the Li'l Abner comic strip, created the schmoo: a lovable creature who adores being kicked and gives milk as a reward for being abused."--from The Complete Idiot's Guide to Learning Yiddish (2000).
