Nerf herder

A nerf herder tends to his herd.

"Why, you stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder!"
"Who's scruffy-looking?"

―Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo

Nerf herders were individuals who herded members of the nerf species. The phrase could also be used as an insult. A number of nerf herders could be found on Eadu. Aurebesh graffiti on the inside of the entrance to the latrine in the 79's cantina on Coruscant said "GRIEVOUS IS A NERFHERDER".
