What it means

A slang term for a hot dog, used in a joking, exaggerated, or affectionate way online. The word's absurdity is part of the appeal, and a "glizzy gobbler" is someone who eats a lot of them.

Examples

  • Bro just inhaled four glizzies at the cookout.
  • Nothing beats a stadium glizzy at a baseball game.
  • It's summer, time to fire up the grill for some glizzies.
  • He's a certified glizzy gobbler, no shame.

Where it comes from

Originally Washington D.C. slang for a Glock handgun, the word got humorously repurposed to mean hot dog and blew up on TikTok and Twitter around 2020.
