about winnie the pooh Scene: Ross is giving a speech at a conference, all his friends are coming with him, now they have to leave but nobody is ready, he rushes everyone to get dressed so they won’t be late. But chandler and joey are fighting over a chair, they both want to sit in the chair, now chandler is telling joey to get up. [Ross: (to all) we have to leave for in exactly twelve minutes. All right, come on.Chandler: (to joey) All right, you will notice that I am fully dressed. I, in turn, have noticed that you are not. So in the words of A. A. Milne, "Get out of my chair, dillhole!"] Question:Is A. A. Milne the author of Pooh the Winnie? What is a dillhole? Did A. A. Milne actually use this word in the book Pooh the Winnie?

It's meant to be funny because A. A. Milne didn't actually say that. It's common for people in English to incorrectly quote a famous person as a joke. So, you could say "In the words of Abraham Lincoln, the internet is turning youth into zombies". Of course, this is meant to be funny because Abraham Lincoln wasn't alive when the internet was created. Or another one "It's frustrating when people incorrectly quote others on the internet - Abraham Lincoln" As for "dillhole", it's apparently an insult, which is slang for "dumb-ass" or "dickhead". I've never heard of it. Perhaps it was said so they were actually allowed to say it on TV rather than dickhead.

To add to Lauren's excellent answer: A.A. Milne is the author of the book "Winnie-the-Pooh" and many related books and stories about Winnie the Pooh, the character he created. They are a delightful series of children's stories, which I loved as child and still love now. Nowhere in any of them does Milne use the word "dillhole."
