❓ Question

Fans discuss the meaning of "wus" after George called Jerry this insult in a recent episode, with one poster explaining it combines "wimp" and "pussy" as a slang insult.

If a recent episode, I believe George called Jerry a wus. Two questions:

  • What was the context for this name calling?
  • Is wus a shortening of some other word?

"Wus" (spellings vary) connects "wimp" and "pussy." It's an insult popular with young testosterone cases in my upstate New York hometown

What, Mulva? Delores?
