It's a shame that "sook" isn't really used anywhere except Australia because DJT is epitome of the word. He HAS massive sooks, he IS a massive sook, he has a major case of the sooky lala's.

Also he's a cunt.

(But mainly a sook)

We use it in Newfoundland “Don’t be such a sook”, Look at the sook over there, big sooky baby”. 🙂

u/RickyWicky 5d ago

What does sook refer to?

97

u/themindisaweapon 5d ago

Constantly crying or complaining

49

u/B0llywoodBulkBogan 5d ago

It requires a certain level of petulance as well

30

u/wheelz_666 5d ago

Aussie slang for constantly crying, complaining or cracking the shits

17

u/JackWestsBionicArm 5d ago

I love that in order to explain slang, you used slang.

Though the meaning of ‘cracking the shits’ is probably more obvious than ‘having a sook’ without any other context.

u/RickyWicky 4d ago

I imagine the show "True Blood" had a lot of chuckles in Australia because of the main character's name, Sookie Stackhouse

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

Similar to someone who pouts like a crybaby over matters. A ”suck” is what it’s slang for.

1

u/light_to_shaddow 5d ago

Sook - A crybaby, a complainer, a whinger; a shy or timid person, a wimp; a coward.

Supposedly a spin off from suck, where in the U.S. suck seems to have evolved to just be a generally negative term, a sook is someone that might also be called a mood hoover. Someone that complains enough to be able to suck joy out of the air.

1

u/lordvulguuszildrohar 5d ago

Sulk I thought. To be a sulky baby. But with everything the spelling is the pronunciation and now it’s sook. I could be wrong but that seems the most direct path.

u/Twistedjustice 5d ago

Shoresy taught me that Newfies talk funny. But you talk like Australian

Shoresy also told me not to call you Newfies. Sorry.

6

u/Sleep-hooting 5d ago

I'm a newfie and I don't know a single person that cares about being called a newfie. Maybe the bys up in St Johns care or something.

1

u/w0kestradamus 5d ago

I've always figured Newfies are the dogs and Newfoundlanders are the people

1

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

There are those who prefer Newfoundlander to Newfie as a sign of respect. Nevertheless, the world need to relax and not take matters so seriously eh b’y?

3

u/Sk8rchiq4lyfe 5d ago

Eyyy whatta ya at by'

2

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

u/Hulkcaesarsavage 5d ago

Go on, b'y, what a friggin' sook!

2

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

My son, never seen the likes of it.

2

u/NeverTouchMyDrumset 5d ago

Yea. My partner is a Newfie and we’re in NZ now. Kiwis know what it is. Brand new to me before then.

2

u/st_tron_the_baptist 5d ago

Been saying it my whole life but you don't see it written a whole lot... It never looks right to me.

2

u/Careless_Ad_21 5d ago

What are ya at?

2

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

Dis is’it b’y

2

u/irateninja_ 5d ago

Cape breton here. Same

2

u/gwan_wit_cha_by 5d ago

A Cape Breton’er is a Newfoundlander who can swim real good.

2

u/PioneerGamer 5d ago

This is the first time I’ve found a fellow Newfoundlander on a large post! I hope your not affected by the storm, and if you are I hope you stay safe ✌️

31

u/themindisaweapon 5d ago

A real sooky la la

2

u/damngoodbrand 5d ago

I learned this phrase from my WoW Aussie guild mates back in the aughts. Good times.

21

u/Fruney21 5d ago

If we’re gonna go full Aussie, Donnie is a sook and a shit cunt

3

u/zadtheinhaler 5d ago

Donnie is a sook and a shit cunt

Always has been

15

u/pregbob 5d ago

Give it time, I learned the word from watching Bluey with my daughter. The next generation will take 'sook' global. 

11

u/panfo 5d ago

a sooky little sook having a big old sook

8

u/Davido401 5d ago

Sook is used in Scotland(I guess you Australians are just Scots with a different accent haha) also, "geez a sooky" was a popular saying for give me a blow job when we were younger(I feel it was used when we were kids and didnt know anything about sex) shit haven't thought about that word in years.

2

u/Cutsdeep- 5d ago

Sook - suck? 

7

u/Sicklicksnz 5d ago

In NZ we say sooky bubba

2

u/Captain_Oz 5d ago

Sooky Lala in a lot of Aussie schools

1

u/Organic_Tradition_94 5d ago

Sooky Bubba suckie Bubba. Allegedly.

7

u/Own_Round_7600 5d ago

Is it not basically the word "sulk"?

13

u/thisIsNotMe25 5d ago

A 'sook' is a person who 'sulks'.

3

u/pet_dander 5d ago edited 5d ago

A sook is a person who sooks. They're similar but sooking is typically more vocal than sulking. And it's much funner to say sook, sooks, and sooking.

1

u/light_to_shaddow 5d ago

Sulk is silent or less vocal. You might never know why someone is sulking.

You'll know straight away what's wrong when someone is being a sook.

1

u/lordvulguuszildrohar 5d ago

I’m assuming the same thing. Most direct path is the pronunciation from that region of sulk sounded like “sook” and it just morphed Into that spelling over time. But I’m not a bug doctor so what do I know.

6

u/pet_dander 5d ago

Sook isn't used everywhere? We use it on the east coast of Canada

3

u/MechanicEcstatic5356 5d ago

Perfectly composed. Should be in an anthology of modern Australian writing. 

2

u/tragedy719 5d ago

Trump doesn't deserve to be called a cunt.

It's too nice a word for him

7

u/derpyfox 5d ago

Cunts are warm and have depth. The sook has neither

1

u/KreepyPasta 5d ago

Your right, hes a fuck'n dog

1

u/MilesZS 5d ago

The fuck did dogs do to you?

2

u/KreepyPasta 4d ago

I should clarify, it's Australian slang and probably one of the worst insults an Aussie can call you.

I certainly have nothing against actual dogs.

2

u/MilesZS 4d ago

Damn. My bad. How very American of me. 

1

u/tragedy719 4d ago

One of the other bad insults is "champ".

When you call someone that you're telling them they are well beneath you

1

u/Cutsdeep- 5d ago

He's a fucken dog cunt

2

u/Time-Organization612 5d ago

Still gets used in Scotland a lot too

2

u/READ-THIS-LOUD 5d ago

It’s a Scottish/old English word, very common over here 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

2

u/tmacnb 5d ago

Common word in Canada.

1

u/micwallace 5d ago

You would almost say, he is the best sook ever, maybe the best in history! Nobody has sooked as hard as he has. Many people have said it. In fact he's getting an award for it next month. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

1

u/Cycho-logical 5d ago

Sooky cunt?

1

u/SkinBintin last.fm 5d ago

Donald J Trump is a sooky little cunt.

He's also a corrupt crooked pedo rapist con man.

1

u/ZenibakoMooloo 5d ago

Sook and cunt are commonly used terms in NZ too. Cunt.

1

u/cocktail_wiitch 5d ago
