Ok, I'll try it out.... *big breath*

I'm chuffed that school is almost out for the summer!

*sigh* no, just doesn't sound right....
Perhaps we could just turn chuff into an all purpose word that fits all needs.

Like, that chuffing guy just stole my parking space.

Or

Chuffen up, it doesn't hurt that bad.

Or

Look, up in the sky, it's chuffer man!

Or

I'm so hungry I can eat a chuff.

[ahem] One may wish to look up some alternate definitions of the slang, "chuff" (as opposed to "chuffed") before deciding how hungry one is.

I'm tempted to copy and paste but I'll let everyone else look up slang for "chuff" too.

Ok, so I did look it up. The first definition I found was this: chuff 1 (chf)
n.
A rude, insensitive person; a boor.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
After looking it up on another site, I think I know what you are referring to, and some people wouldn't even have to be so hungry to want to eat a chuff. I am not one of those people, however. So I won't be using it that way.

But, back to the first definition, see why I think being "chuffed" is not such a great thing??
