What’s a chud?

[–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 27 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Chud is a slang term used online to refer to people who are considered far from socially normal and unpleasant to be around. The term, undergoing slight changes in its meaning over the decades, has maintained its usage as an offensive and negatively connotated word. Starting in 2020, the term spawned the Chudjak, Avatar Chud, and GigaChud memes as it was increasingly connected with the alt-right.

Sounds like they made a term for wannabe but failed chads

Chud is the present term of Chad.

This Chad will one day be a Chud.

You already know, I promise

Back in my day, it referred to a penis that is wider than it is long. Today it refers to something far less pleasant (ultra right-winger).

I thought that was a chode

A regional dialect, maybe?

[–] redhorsejacket@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's an Albany expression.

Ah, that makes sense. I'm from Utica.
