Not to be confused with looking up “urban duck” on urban dictionary...

Who comes up with this stuff?

A duck egg is similar to the numeral 0, their exam score.

Or someone is tighter than a duck's arse.

If it was somebody local then they meant stupid. However, it is/was used in the US to mean an Irish immigrant (we all had blue eyes apparently).

What's the context? Did you hear it being used as an insult? If so it might mean the person on the receiving end is a bit sheltered, a bit precious, a bit coddled.

You should've lamped the cunt one.

OP, for your education and edification, Boom Bap is partly correct - the term "Duck Egg" refers to a Protestant who is bad at cricket. The term harks back to the 1700s and Lord Plantagent Watermelon-Knackers, who fancied himself quite the Silly Mid-On and was partial to duck-egg sandwiches. Fucker was useless.
