In 1995, Conan O'Brien and Andy Richter were scheming ways to get past the TV censors on Conan's late night talk show, and they settled on an all-purpose, suitable replacement for the infamous seven dirty swearwords that they couldn't say on TV: Crunk. The choice to use that word was definitely not random. Ice T just happened to be on the show that night, and he likely fed the word to them beforehand and certainly helped fuel its popularity during the telecast ("That was seriously crunked up, right there."). But Ice never claimed to have come up with the word--he probably got it from Dirty South rappers, who had been using it for years as a euphemism for getting really crazy and fucked up on marijuana and alcohol (stoned and drunk. Chronic plus Drunk = Crunk). Or maybe crack and drunk. Or coke and drunk. Or maybe just being crazy and drunk. Whatever it is, it means getting really crazy and fucked up. And with Conan's introduction of the word to northern suburban audiences, Crunk came into its own as the recognized sound of the new generation of Dirty South Rap, prompting white college fratboys everywhere to wander around going "WHHHUT!! OKAAY!! YEEEAAHHH!!" like annoying dipshits. and it's all thanks to Lil Jon, and by Lil Jon I mean Dave Chappelle.
"Whhhut!! OKAAY!! YEEEAAHHH!!"

Get the Crunchery mug.Literally going beyond getting Crunk. It's when the status of a party has reached nuclear levels and anything goes, up to and including dance/drug/alcohol induced combat dancing and roman orgies where such things probably shouldn't be going on.
Nerds, Party Animals, Rockstars, Gangstas, Prostitutes, random porn starlets, Politicians, Police officers... your mom. ALL OF THEM totally fucked up the next morning as each one awakes in a stupor, smell of liquor and marijuana lingering in the air mixed with stale sweat, musky scent of vajayjay and semen... no two people who'd normally even get along, and it's evident everyone partied and probably fucked like fiends.
