Another way to describe aesthetics/
people/experiences that are
basic. It was coined by a now 23 year old white woman in 2013 while a student at Beverly Hills High
School, on whom the irony is apparently lost. According to the New York Times, "cheugy (pronounced chew-gee) can be used, broadly, to describe someone who is out of date or trying too hard."
Person 1: Did you read that article in the New York Times about cheugy? It was pretty cheugy!
Person 2:
Yah, they keep trying to
make cheugy happen.
Person 1:
Don't worry, it's not going to happen.
