Slang used to described something as being sickly, depressing and painful in the early 1980s .
The word is thought to have originated from the Old Dutch word "cranc" meaning "weak", where the German word kränken ("To make ill") comes from. Historians believe that British soldiers during World War I started using the word Cronky to refer to the rations they were given in the trenches which later was rediscovered briefly in the 1980s after being used in an episode of "King of the Ghetto".

I'm finding this soup is making me feel cronky.
Will you please excuse my partner Shawn, lately he's been cronking up the whole room.
