As a spelling of chubby, it’s illiterate. For the mouse, I suppose it means that the term originates in Australia, not the mouse. It cannot be an Asian name because it doesn’t give the language, and almost all Asian languages are written in scripts other than Roman. Can’t be a place in Zambia, because that requires capitalization. Too many serious problems, too little of any value, delete. —Stephen 08:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The entry certainly needs to be cleaned at this point, it didn't have all of these meanings when I initially rfv'd it. I think there is enough to support a proper noun entry for Chubi (Upper case), for the two name senses & possibly the rug as a derivitave of the place name. The urban dictionary entry is tosh, and I'm still not sure about the original two.. --Versageek 13:31, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

spelling[edit]

Alternative spelling of chubby? Since when does mistyping something qualify as alternative spelling?

Sorry, I added the above line before reading the discussion here. So I'll ask you... why is this not deleted yet? This entry is obvious nonsense, as should be evident by the bullshit references above (urbandictionary? Nigger please, that's as reliable a source as a goddamn tag on a wall. And a name? I don't think that names of people qualify as entries in a dictionary).Assimilateur 22:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Urban slang for "bitch". Equinox 20:32, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

According to Urban Dictionary, it is a w:predictive texting error: the words "chubi" and "bitch" have equivalent keying sequences. Seems unciteable. This, that and the other (talk) 00:19, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
