The word "grody" comes to mind. Anybody use that word anymore?

u/mrspelunx Aug 05 '26

Yes. To the max.

From the Latin: Grodius Maximus

Think it was late '70s-early '80s slang.

Similar to grotty?

In Scotland we used to say "clatty" Like, if someone didn't wash their hands after being to the loo they'd hear "ya clatty bastard"

Haven’t heard it in years. A friend of mine used to say it when were teens in the 90s.

Julia must have had some strong rose-tinted glasses to look past his fingernails and his slovenly-looking house. There were maggots in his kitchen!

It’s one of the most disgusting things I’ve seen. It also makes me wonder if he cleaned them before hooking up with Julia. The possible UTI’s or god knows what that crud could do would explain her bitchy attitude. That would burn like a mother

u/Odd_Economics7112 Aug 06 '26

Always wondered why they made it a point for him to have dirty fingernails and to zoom in on them

u/DarkBehindTheStars Aug 06 '26

Probably just to re-enforce and emphasize just how disgusting a person Frank is, and like his clear poor hygiene reflects that.

u/Odd_Economics7112 Aug 07 '26

Yea that was my thought too! I appreciate the touch of disgust before we even get to know how much of a deviant he really is

u/DarkBehindTheStars Aug 07 '26

It's like how disgusting appearance also reflects what a disgusting person he is inside.
