Gayer than a box of California cranberries

adj. (slang, humorous, absurd)
1. Extremely flamboyant, over-the-top, or obviously gay in a way that’s both unexpected and undeniable.
2. Unnecessarily extra, fabulous, or theatrical, like a Broadway performance starring a drag queen dressed as a fruit salad.
3. A phrase that sounds like an old-timey Southern saying but was actually made up in 2025, yet somehow feels like it always existed.

Coined in 2025, this phrase randomly combines “gay,” “cranberries,” and “California” into something that makes no sense but feels right. Originally created as a joke, it has since confused, entertained, and baffled people across the internet.

Cranberry

The kind of fart that occupies its own zip code, that lingers well after said fart has been expelled. Inspired by the song "Linger" by the Cranberries, because everyone will wonder why the eff that fart had to linger. "Do you have to let it linger?"
I busted the worst cranberry at the bar last night and it cleared the entire room - it wasn't safe to return for 30 minutes! I even saw someone gag on the smell.
