Krunk (profanity)
Krunk, like sept, is a contrived attempt to give a neologism the status of profanity.
Krunk is an all-purpose swear word used as a bowdlerization for other swear words. Examples include:
- "Wow! Look at the krunks on her!" (tits)
- "Would you mind picking up your dog's krunk? I almost stepped in it!" (shit or crap)
- "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned; I touched my krunker three times since my last confession." (ambiguous genital terminology)
- "Your mama's so fat, after krunking her I rolled over twice and was still on her." (fuck or thap; originated from a Usenet post)(From a post to the usenet group alt.fan.conan-obrien ).
Krunk was used during the first two seasons of the O'Brien show, beginning in early 1994. He encouraged guests to insert the word into their conversations. On April 30, 2004, American Idol judge Randy Jackson used "krunked" during the show, but by then O'Brien had no idea what Jackson was talking about.
