Ring Knocker
A derogatory term for a Black Freemason. A "Ring Knocker" wears their gaudy Freemason ring, which is akin to a High School football championship ring, wears a black suit, white shirt, and black tie, and in unison, they knock their rings on the table to come in agreement with their Freemason beliefs. They are entitled douchebags who are in a half-assed cult and/or society group. Black Freemasons are on the lower rung of factions in the trade unions and other workgroup factions.
Nick: Hey Bill, I saw a group of six black guys at an Irish pub. They were all wearing suits and ties and had big rings. I tried to converse with them, but they were very uppity and talked about how knowledge is key. They kept knocking their rings on the table.
Bill: Oh yeah, we always see those guys in the trades. They're called Ring Knockers. All they do is try to act smart. They're douches.
