lout

Most reviews have praised Keoghan's multi-layered performance, with critic Bob Mann noting his character "is a loud, sweary, tattoo-covered, drug-taking, drug-dealing ‘lout’... but he’s also a parent who is trying to keep his kids on the right track and has a softer side that is quite charming."

"It's possible that their lout of a client insisted that the lawyers waste their meeting with general grievances about prosecutorial misconduct that already have been rejected by the courts," tweeted former U.S.

Mr. Stevenson’s character, Titus Pullo, was, as Alessandra Stanley put it in a 2005 review in The New York Times, “a drunken, womanizing lout — a soccer hooligan in sandals.”

He’s a lout, he’s a slob, he’s a mess — and he is enormously fine company on the page.

His name is Neil Gibson, in homage, one assumes, to the cyberpunk writers Neil Stephenson and William Gibson, even though he’s a lout and, to the best of my knowledge, Stephenson and Gibson are not.
