A snub, cut, or slight is a refusal to recognise an acquaintance by ignoring them, avoiding them or pretending not to know them. For example, a failure to greet someone may be considered a snub.
In awards and lists
For awards, the term "snub" is usually used to refer to a work or person that fails to be nominated or win award, with whether or not a person or work was legitimately snubbed for an award has often been subject for public debate. The term Snub has also been used in relation to lists, such as the NBA 75th Anniversary Team. Many notable people and works have failed to be nominated or win a major award. For example, Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick never won best director at the Oscars despite being nominated five and four times respectively, and Glenn Close, Peter O'Toole, Deborah Kerr, Sigourney Weaver and Cicely Tyson have never won an Oscar related to acting despite each having multiple nominations. Among films, Citizen Kane, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Goodfellas, Brokeback Mountain, and Saving Private Ryan are all widely considered to be movies snubbed for the Best Picture Oscar, while The Searchers received no Oscar nominations at all despite being considered one of the best films of all time. The widely acclaimed actor Donald Sutherland, was never nominated for an Oscar, even though the films in which he starred in leading roles, such as M*A*S*H (1970), Klute (1971) and Ordinary People (1980), were nominated and won several Oscars, including his fellow actors.
For the Emmy Awards, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and The Wire were never nominated for best comedy and best drama despite their critical acclaim. The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Drunk History and the Seinfeld episode "The Soup Nazi" are also generally considered major snubs from the Emmys as well. Angela Lansbury, Sandra Oh, Don Cheadle, Steve Carell, Anthony Anderson, and Hugh Laurie are also known for having never won an acting award at the Emmys despite each being nominated at least ten times. Michael Landon was notably also never nominated for an acting Emmy despite his popular appeal.
Some have suggested that some athletes have been snubbed from winning season-ending sports awards despite having great years statistically such as Jim Brown failing to win the 1956 Heisman Trophy and Ted Williams failing to win the 1941 and 1942 American League MVP award.

SNUB or Stop Norwich UrBanisation is a non-profit organisation based around Norwich, United Kingdom, whose aim is to stop the urbanisation of Norwich and its surrounding villages, such as Rackheath, Salhouse, Wroxham and Postwick.
The work of SNUB has received wide coverage, including national coverage on BBC Radio 4's Farming Today programme
and in the UK newspaper, the Daily Telegraph. It has also received local coverage on television programmes such as BBC One's Politics Show, BBC One's Look East, ITV's Anglia Tonight and a BBC One Norwich North By-Election Special; and in local newspapers, such as the Eastern Daily Press and the Norwich Evening News.
In March 2012, after a successful legal challenge at the High Court, they announced that the actor Martin Shaw would become their official patron. In a press release, he announced that he was "simply furious and upset by your plight and that of all of us who wish to live in quiet and peace. I will be your Patron and keep fighting".
Rackheath Eco-town
SNUB have worked alongside many local residents in protesting heavily against the proposed Rackheath Eco-town, as they claim the plans are flawed and will lead to massive overdevelopment of the area.
An official petition on the 10 Downing Street petitions website has also been created by SNUB, and has nearly 300 online signatures (as of June 2010), and a paper petition with over 3000 signatures.
SNUB have also organised many public meetings with both Broadland District Council and the local residents who will be effected by the proposals. The first public meeting at Holy Trinity Church, Rackheath, on 17 September 2009 and was featured on BBC One's Look East. The meeting focused on the proposals, and was attended by many hundreds of local residents, as well as a number of senior council officials and councillors, including MP Keith Simpson, Broadland District Council leader Simon Woodbridge, Councillor Andrew Proctor, Chief Planner Phil Kirby, and Councillor Ben McGilvary.
Norwich Northern Distributor Road
SNUB share the views of many residents and businesses of North Norwich, as well as the views of the Campaign for Better Transport in the protest over the Norwich Northern Distributor Road, dubbed the "Road to Nowhere", as it no longer is planned to link up to Taverham and the A47. SNUB say they are very concerned as to the implications for Taverham, RIngland and Costessey as traffic can not join up to the A47 meaning an increase in traffic in these areas and more "rat runs".
