Re: Jobby bum?Posted by ESC on December 31, 2000 In Reply to: Jobby bum posted by Monica on December 28, 2000 : What does 'jobby bum' in Scottish english mean? I couldn't find "jobby bum." My "Collins Gem Scots Dictionary" says "to bum is to boast or brag. A boaster or conceited person can be spoken of contemptuously as a bum. These senses come from the earlier Scots sense, to make a humming or buzzing sound."
