GONK
What Does Gonk Mean?
Gonk means "Stupid Person" and "Stuffed Toy."A gonk is a type of stuffed toy with origins in Nordic and Scandinavian mythology that became popular throughout the western world during the twentieth century.
Given the gormless appearance of gonks, it was inevitable gonk would come to be used to refer to a stupid or gormless person. It is typically (but not always) used with a touch of sympathy or affection, rather than as a harsh insult. For example:
- Biden may be a gonk, but at least he's not vicious and horrid, like his predecessor.
- I manged to sell extended guarantees to three gonks today.
