thicce

Thicce is an informal term that has appeared in online communication as a variant spelling of “thicc” with an extra “e” at the end. In practice, it is used playfully to describe someone or something that is thick—in the sense of having generous dimensions or fullness—often in a humorous or affectionate way. Because it is nonstandard slang, its precise meaning can vary by context and user.

Etymology and usage of thicce trace to the slang term thicc, a deliberate misspelling of thick that gained prominence in meme culture starting in the early 2010s. The added final e in thicce is typically a stylistic choice to create a distinct word within a caption, comment, or meme and does not indicate a formal semantic shift.

In use, thicce tends to appear in informal online settings such as image macros, social media captions, and comments. It is more common in communities that blend humor with self-referential or ironic tone. As with many internet slang terms, the exact nuance can depend on who is using it and in what context; some readers may interpret it as a compliment, while others may see it as playful or silly.

Limitations and reception: thicce is not a term established in formal dictionaries or standard written English. Its meaning remains fluid and conversational, and its reception can vary across audiences and platforms.
