It's quite simply "knob" because that is the correct spelling. It's certainly not a matter of opinion.

Neither because it's misandric language and shouldn't be tolerated.

A 'Nob' is slang for posh people...and also an area of San Fransisco, Nob Hill.
Totally different to a knob.

I think it's an interesting and important point to be discussed. For me it is nob. As in, nobhead.
Knob alludes to a doorhandle or something doesn't it?
nob means cock. So it's nob.
How is that funny? Tell me.jimharri said:''Correct spelling''? On here?citykev28 said:

If you're sad enough to spend as much time on here (the forum in general rather than just the cellar or an individual thread) as me, you'll find plenty of spelling mistakes Therefore the concept correct spelling is quite humourous.StrangewaysHereWeCome said:Have you seen how many pages the barm or muffin thread has?Hamann Pineapple said:

Always wondered if people who lived here would feel as though they're insulting someone if they were asked where they live.

Bloke "Nob End"

Nob Hill was also an affectionate term for Mottram Rd/ Mottram Old Rd and it's environs in Stalybridge.
This area generally has the most expensive houses in the town and where the 'ten bob millionaires' lived.
