Meme lore
What is the Big Chungus meme?
Big Chungus shows Bugs Bunny imitating the unusually portly Elmer Fudd from Wabbit Twouble beside a covered rabbit hole. The image is most often used as an exaggerated reaction to a big meal, indulgence, or any situation that makes the subject feel cartoonishly larger than life.
Origin & history
In Wabbit Twouble, Bugs Bunny briefly mimics Elmer Fudd’s unusually portly character design. The frame was repurposed online as “Big Chungus,” an intentionally absurd name for the enlarged Bugs image. The exact first meme post is unclear, but the format became widely recognizable through late-2010s remix culture.
