cuddlebuddy

A very close friend who enjoys cuddling, but does not have a sexual relationship with the person he likes. (See Huggy Buddies.)

1. Mark and I aren't lovers--just cuddlebuddies.
2. Jo Ann wished she had a real cuddlebuddy who could sleep over sometimes; keeping a teddy bear in bed embarrassed her.

wuv

1. A baby-talk pronunciation of love. When used by adults, "wuv" implies that the love-object is cute, childlike, and/or cuddly. Very rarely used about sexual attraction; puppy love is a near-synonym of this word.

2. Childlike displays of affection by someone who has fallen in "wuv".

1. Awww...I wuv you sooo much, my widdle snuggle bear.

2. My girlfriend's driving me nuts; every time we go on a date, she goes wuv-crazy.

<33333333

An exaggerated version of the less than three emoticon (heart, love, or luv) used in online forums and chatrooms. Used to indicate extremely strong love or attraction; akin to the multiple hearts drawn over/around a lovestruck cartoon character.

If read aloud, this symbol is best pronounced "lotsa-hearts" or "loooove": the number of threes may vary, sometimes growing too long for a literal mathematical reading.

I <33333333 you so much!
I <33333333 it when we hug...
I <33333333 pizza.
I <33333333 that teddy bear you gave me!

Snuggle Huggle

A display of affection which combines snuggling and hugging; a very cozy hug.

Janet gave me a snuggle huggle and squealed, "I'm sooo glad you're home!"

AC/DC

A hard-rock band from the 1970s. Subject of many rumors related to Satanism, partly because of their song titles (e.g., Highway to Hell) and partly because of their name (wrongly believed to stand for "AntiChrist, Devil's Child").

Actually, I've heard that AC/DC took the name from a label on one member's vacuum cleaner.

arctophile

A person who collects and enjoys teddy bears. Unlike "plushophile", this word almost NEVER implies a sexual fetish--only a sentimental interest.

Frannie is a serious arctophile if I ever met one: Not only did she have wall-to-wall shelves built for her teddy bear collection, but she also bought a database program just to catalog each bear by age and manufacturer.

awww

Used to express a sentimental reaction to warm fuzzy experiences. (The number of W's at the end is arbitrary, but at least two or three normally occur in this word.)

Awww...that kid hugging the teddy bear looks SO cute!
Awww, I love it when we snuggle...
