tawdry (adj.) – gaudy; of little value
for
your edification: Do you know anyone named Todd? I’m sure you do. He’s that cheesy guy who wears so much fetid
body spray that your eyes burn when he walks into the room. He’s that dude who always has the top four
buttons of his shirt unbuttoned to reveal his unsettling pop of chest hair, his
two dangling skin tags and a mole, and his three gaudy gold chains. Todd is tawdry. He thinks he’s bringing so much to the table,
but his presence is of little value. In fact, his presence kind of repulses
you. Skin tags, gold chains, chest hair:
that’s Todd.

- Crystal: Spring
Break this year was so freaking lame.
Paula: Why? I
thought you guys were going to Spartan Beach.
Crystal: We did.
It was ridiculous. The entire
beach was full of Todds.
Paula: Full of what?
Crystal: Todds.
Cheesy, tawdry, gaudy Todds. It was a sea of fake gold chains and chest
hair.
Paula: Sounds awful.
Sorry. Gina must’ve hated it,
too.
Crystal: You know about her pregnancy scare with that
random Todd?
Paula: What?
Crystal: Ha ha.
Um, what?
