Cherub

Cherub, to be used as a secret replacement for the word cunt on social media. When one has friends, family and colleagues on the same social media platform/s as their closet friends, to whom cunt is used frequently as punctuation or as a term of endearment, you replace cunt with cherub as not to offend anyone, but those closest to you know exactly what you mean.

House cherub

A person who spends a lot of time at home cooking and baking, and has achieved a pleasant amount of chubbiness. New York-based comedian/writer Tony Atamanuik mentioned this term on a Twitch gaming stream on October 19th, describing himself as “a fat, bread-baking little f-ing house cherub”. The image is especially humorous when applied to someone who isn’t babylike (the “putto” depicted in Renaissance artwork), but a well-built middle-aged man.
This is especially relevant to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, when many people found themselves housebound and turned to the kitchen to pass the time (and compensate for the difficulty in obtaining goods like bread and cakes after many retailers and restaurants shut down). With access to gym facilities restricted, bicycles and exercise equipment at a premium, and some areas imposing curfews or shelter-in-place orders due to rising infections, the “Corona 20” weight gain was widely discussed on social media.

I baked sourdough bread yesterday, and pizza for lunch today -- you guys have to help me eat this Sachertorte I made tonight, I think I'm turning into a house cherub!
