They open up about the state of the music industry, Taylor Swift and Miley, and overcoming tragedy. The actor, whose name was Taylor , could not remember the name assigned to him in his part of the play. Taylor alludes to several made from the well known Glastonbury thorn.

Cain told The New York Times that her group chat will debate and disagree on what is or isn't cheugy. The term indexes a variety of familiar aesthetics, like those of white millennial women, girlbosses, college campus Greek life, or "straight TikTok.
That makes it the perfect kind of vague signifier, easily applied in a variety of very familiar contexts that resonate both with millennials and zoomers members of Gen Z.
As Rolling Stone's Ej Dickson wrote, it's another installment in the online war between the neighboring generations, previously manifested through the playful slandering of skinny jeans and side parts, and even the writing of diss tracks in response. Unlike other adjacent slang words — " local " or "basic" immediately come to mind — cheugy isn't as strongly negative, and it's also something with which some people self-identify. That sets it apart somewhat from its predecessors: describing someone as "local" or "basic" is indubitably judgmental, implying a kind of obliviousness or strict adherence to mainstream culture.

The cheugy aesthetic, while encapsulating a number of similar products or phenomena as "basic," can also be applied regardless of gender.
It also seems to encapsulate a number of masculine tropes like the Barstool Sports catchphrase "Saturdays are for the boys" and hanging flags on a bedroom wall, which the cheuglife Instagram account called "the epitome of male cheug interior design. Besides, it is also available on other forms of dictionaries as well. It is used to express shock, excitement, and surprise over something.
As for its origin, the trend was started by a TikTok user called meetjulio. He shared the audio with a video of a huge frog, saying sheesh repeatedly over and over again. Thousands of videos are being made on the trend and TikTok users are getting absolutely crazy over it. It is also used as slang.
