The peak of ignorant dimwitted-ness, the cake taker for adult simpletonry. The feckless rube has nary a shred of understanding of how, when, or why they have grievously revealed their knowledge of the situation at hand to be rapidly approaching zero.

Johnathan seriously thinks he's going to pick his next place to live from a map, after his city's economy has cycled downward due to policy changes.

In response, he just sort of sits there and when he talks, he makes footnotes about what people say, while failing to see the assumptions and arguments being put forth. As a consequence, he takes every assumption thrown at him, being ping-ponged back and forth.

The tourist guy from SpongeBob SquarePants who says amazing
My favorite character from SpongeBob is Rube Goldfish
Rube: insult, meaning uncultured, undereducated rural person. Often spelled Roob by genuine Rubes. Contrary to popular belief, people who use the term Rube or Roob are subconsciously and ironically self identifying.
“Did you see that Rube in cowboy boots at the co-op yesterday? He definitely had dried manure on his boots,” said the turtleneck wearing San Franciscan to a friend. They were on their way home from Barnes and Noble, carefully zigzagging through the tents and human feces that dominated the landscape.
