The Cedrool
(Cedroolis Oridinaris)

Cedrool (pronounced "Gegrool")  is the Italian-American or dialectical Italian word for cucumber. (Cetriolo is the standard, authentic Italian word.) Basically, in slang, it means "a big dope." That's how I have always understood it. Below is an example of a cedool as he munches on Cheetos and watches (perhaps) a dirty movie.

You might also call him a Jooch (Neopolital dialect from ciuccio, jackass). Usually a big lumbering dopey person.
