Erm, what the sigma?

“Erm, what the sigma” is a humorous and sarcastic expression used to convey shock, confusion, or disbelief. The phrase merges "erm"—a filler word indicating hesitation or puzzlement—with "what the sigma," a playful reference to the concept of a "sigma male," which is often associated with a lone, self-reliant persona in popular culture. The term is meant to be taken in a tongue-in-cheek manner, adopting a tone similar to that of Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants, known for his deadpan and exasperated reactions. This expression is used to mockingly elevate the level of bewilderment in a situation, adding a layer of ironic seriousness.

Sigma Build

A "Sigma build" more typically refers to some kind of archetype person, a sort frequently characterized in terms of characteristic physical and style features. An adjective used often, half in humor or half in contempt, to refer sometimes to an obese woman or man who has the typical distinctive look somewhat disheveled.

Individuals who belong to this group generally wear worn-out sports wear, such as running shoes with black tops and white bottoms, oversized or ill-fitting basketball shorts—or shorts in general—, and large, faded t-shirts that are generally stretched out, frayed, or appear to be years old. Their grooming is generally bad, with a long, unkempt beard, dry skin, and noticeable dandruff. Their hair tends to be long and unwashed, sometimes greasy or puffy, adding to the overall unkept appearance.

In terms of hygiene, they might not apply deodorant at all or use it sparingly, often opting for spray-on types or even specialty products like Native. The total of these traits helps create an image of a person who does not care about grooming norms but is instead accepting of the so-called "Sigma build."
