I get confused every time I see the word "chuffed" because i have no idea if becoming chuffed is a good or bad thing.
It's mostly delighted or pleased, although it can occasionally mean the opposite, especially in the military. I believe it started off as "proud." This bunny is delighted and proud of his new rug.
I'm amazed he knows how to use a litterbox and not just poop everywhere. That's probably how he earned his nice rug!
Apparently it's a thing you can train them to do with a bit of effort. You cna train some birds too.
Chuffed is slang for very pleased in the UK. More specifically it's when something good has just happened to you that's causing you to grin uncontrollably like a lunatic.
As my crude father would say: "I'm chuffed to buggery!"
Although buggery is a bad thing on its own, when combined with chuffed it's like a +1 enchantment instead.
It's the most negative-sounding positive word, isn't it?
A very British trait.
How droll.
Satisfied. Smug but not in a negative way.
Especially when someone gets "chuffed to bits"
Pleased
Up the chuff = good, down the chuff = bad
I have the same reaction to nonplussed
"Chuff" in the context of rock climbing = bad, made an effort but didn't get very far / fell a lot
So you're chuffed about it?
