origin/meaning of "thicc" and other ck > cc changes

dstarfire

can somebody explain the origin/meaning of replacing "ck" with "cc" in certain words (as seen in their recent video on the case that rips off err, "copies" the mac pro's case design)? I've also seen this as a standard meme in pet-related stuff: "s/he protecc, s/he attacc, but more than that s/he (does something cute/silly)". The only result I've been able to find through googling is some BS about rappers and gang affiliations. Supposedly , "ck" means cripp killer even if it's the normal ending of a word (actually got a cramp from all the skeptical eyebrow-raising these articles induced).

 

Every other intentional respelling (whether it's in textspeak (iirc, imo, etc.), modern chat acronyms, gamerspeak, etc.) I've encountered has some logic in addition to the standard goal of telling everybody "hey, I'm a ...".

"protect" doesn't end in "ck" - just pointing that out...

Damn you young hooligans, we have perfectly usable words already for this.  Why must you keep creating new ones?

That really wouldn't surprise me if that was the origin; LA schools put a ban on the shoe brand British Knights (logo: BK), because BK is 'blood killer' (and gangsters would wear red bandanas wrapped around their shoes to further showcase disrespect).

 

The history of slang is always interesting.

Nibba origin is a slang way to say the n word. Instead of walking pass by your homie with easily offend people around you and call your homie the n word, you can call them nibba

 

Ex: WHAT UP MY NIBBA?! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL THIS TIME? But for real though, where is my $20 you say you going to give it back, nibba?

Here's an alternative answer: some modern humans are just too lazy and stupid to spell things correctly.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

Doesn't apply here as it's definitely intentional.

The "cc" in "thicc" is not merely aesthetic, it affects pronunciation and meaning.  Think "fat" vs "phat."  The term "thick" tends to be associated with stupidity and being overweight.  "Thicc," on the other hand, is used to reference people who are thick due to being muscular or otherwise attractive.

 

As for pronunciation, it is hard to explain via text, but I will try.  "Thick" typically ends in a hard "k" sound, coming to an abrupt stop. "Thicc" draws out the "c"s and accentuates the "Th"

How can someone associate thick with being stupid and overweight? Like... what?

Thick <- Dense <- information doesn't get through one's skull (into the brain) <- stupid

Thick <- relative layers of fatty tissue <-  overall body size; conversely probably the natural antonym for 'thin', someone who is underweight.

If only there was a website for looking up the origin of memes...

 

Quote

Origin

The term "thicc," derived from the English adjective "thick," first came into colloquial usage among urban youths as part of the African American Vernacular English in the early 2000s. Online, the earliest known mention of the word can be found on an Angelfire-hosted webpage[15] dedicated to more than a dozen of hip hop artists of that era and created on November 4th, 2004.

Spread

Over the course of the next decade, the slang term continued to gain traction in American pop culture and online hip hop communities as recording artists began incorporating the term into the lyrics and titles of their songs, not to mention its usage in the comments section of porn sites. By mid-2015, "thicc" had garnered a humorous connotation as some internet users began using the word ironically on Twitter,[11]Tumblr[9] and iFunny.
