# My Chud Son My Chud Son is a catchphrase meme where X posters invent an imaginary Chud son and attach the label to annoying or embarrassing content. X user @FoldableHuman coined the phrase in a September 2018 quote tweet, but it stayed dormant until @ViagraPussy revived it in January 2023. By February 2024, @chronakey's version earned over 25,000 likes on X. ## Origin The earliest known use of 'chud son' came from X user @FoldableHuman on September 13, 2018, in a quote tweet mocking a graphic about alleged left-wing bias at American universities[1]. The joke read, 'I spend my time discouraging my chud sons from studying Theatre, Music, Sociology, or English, but I'm still going to pretend to be surprised when none of my chud sons are studying the things I told them not to bother studying.' That post reached around 360 likes over six years but did not spark immediate imitation. Widespread Chud Son posting began on January 14, 2023, when X user @ViagraPussy tweeted 'this a picture of my chud son that I hate,' which earned about 30 likes but set the template[2]. That phrasing became the baseline other posters copied through the rest of the year. - **Platform:** Twitter / X - **Creator:** @ViagraPussy (viral format); earlier coinage by @FoldableHuman in 2018 - **Date:** 2023 ## Overview Posts in the Chud Son style typically caption a photo, meme image or video as the imagined son's handiwork, with the parent expressing disgust, exhaustion or defeat[2]. A common opener uses the exact wording 'my chud son that I hate,' or variants like 'my chud son sent me this' and 'me being forced to play with my chud son,' then displays whatever the poster finds dumb enough to warrant the disavowal[5]. The Chud reference draws on the online insult 'Chud,' describing a reactionary, loud or terminally online man, so the joke works by attributing that identity to a made-up child who the poster then rejects on camera[7]. My Chud Son also leans on older X 'son' bits, especially Weird Twitter's Large Adult Sons style associated with @dril, where posters would narrate an absurd family dynamic as if filing a report about their adult offspring[7]. ## How to Use Creating a Chud Son post typically starts with any image, meme or video the poster wants to mock, then captioning it as something the imagined son did, made or sent. Common wordings include 'my chud son that I hate,' 'my chud son sent me this' or a line about being forced to interact with him. The joke lands when the attached image is self-evidently stupid, cringeworthy or reactionary. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is My Chud Son?
