suit
1. Ugly and uncomfortable "business clothing" often worn by non-hackers.
Invariably worn with a "tie", a strangulation device that partially cuts off the
blood supply to the brain. It is thought that this explains much about the
behaviour of suit-wearers.
2. A person who habitually wears suits, as distinct from a techie or hacker.
See loser, burble, management, Stupids, SNAFU principle, and brain-damaged.
