The other definitions have the
right meaning (a sloppy
kiss where you blow, making a farting
sound,) but this spelling and pronunciation have diverged from the original, and should be considered incorrect.
This word was first introduced on "The Cosby Show", (Season 2, Episode
11) and explicitly spelled out "ZRBTT". It was also clearly pronounced without the final "
r" sound given here. It was spelled repeatedly by several characters. The subtitles as aired on the show spelled it "Zurbitt" when Bill Cosby was pronouncing it as if it were a real word. Part of the
joke of this word is that it's a nonsense spelling without vowels.
In the episode,
Vanessa was practicing for a spelling test, and Rudy kept interrupting, asking what a series of nonsense letters spelled. The following, including spelling, is taken from the subtitles as transmitted.
Rudy: Vanessa, what does "Q-N-G-H" spell?
Vanessa: Nothing. Give me another word.
Rudy: What does "Z-
R-B-T-T" spell?
Vanessa: Nothing!
Rudy: How come when you spell it's a word and when I spell it it's nothing?
Vanessa:
Dad, I'm studying very
hard for the spelling test, and she keeps asking
dumb questions.
Cliff: I don't think anybody asks
dumb questions. What's your problem?
Rudy: What does "Z-
R-B-T-T" spell?
Cliff: "Z-
R-B-T-T" spell? Uh... That's zurbitt. Zurbitt... uh.. You know what I think a zurbitt is? I just remembered. A zurbitt is this:
(makes zrbtt on Rudy's cheek.)
(UrbanDictionary forces me to include the misspelling "zerbert" here.)
