name flopper
Person who casually invokes the name of a "famous celebrity" only to have the listener be less than impressed by the acquaintance.
Guy trying to impress his date: So, the other day before I leave work, I decide to have the crew fix me up a couple Double Whoppers with cheese and a large order of rings to take home for dinner. While I was waiting for my food, I ended up chatting with Chris Kattan who stopped in for a value meal. Yeah, CK was bouncing some ideas off me for "Corky Romano 2."
