    I get confused every time I see the word “chuffed” because i have no idea if becoming chuffed is a good or bad thing.

      It’s mostly delighted or pleased, although it can occasionally mean the opposite, especially in the military. I believe it started off as “proud.” This bunny is delighted and proud of his new rug.

      I’m amazed he knows how to use a litterbox and not just poop everywhere. That’s probably how he earned his nice rug!

        Apparently it’s a thing you can train them to do with a bit of effort. You cna train some birds too.

          Many animals manage to do it without training. for example pigs have a pooping, eating and sleeping place. It’s kinda mean and not true saying they are filthy animals

      Chuffed is slang for very pleased in the UK. More specifically it’s when something good has just happened to you that’s causing you to grin uncontrollably like a lunatic.

      As my crude father would say: “I’m chuffed to buggery!”

      Although buggery is a bad thing on its own, when combined with chuffed it’s like a +1 enchantment instead.

      It’s the most negative-sounding positive word, isn’t it?

      Satisfied. Smug but not in a negative way.

      “Chuff” in the context of rock climbing = bad, made an effort but didn’t get very far / fell a lot
