The Thicc Grinch meme gained notoriety across social media platforms like Twitter and TikTok, featuring an edited or specifically framed version of the classic holiday curmudgeon with an exaggeratedly large posterior. While the Grinch is traditionally known for his small heart, this version focuses on his 'assets,' turning the grumpy recluse into an internet thirst-trap joke. It is frequently used to represent unexpected confidence, 'thick' culture humor, or simply to subvert wholesome holiday traditions with absurd, body-positive irony. The meme's popularity peaks every December, proving that even a holiday villain can become a viral sensation for all the wrong (or right) reasons.
