Dish-faced gazooni
This is an interesting insult hurled by Miss Peavy at the love of her life, Mr. Edward Cootes, in the P. G. Wodehouse novel, Leave It To Psmith. It makes one wonder what she might have called him if she had not loved him.

Gazooni is a reference to the March 21, 1920 Krazy Kat comic strip. Written by George Herriman, who coined the phrase.
