tawdry (adj.) – gaudy; of little value
for your edification: Do you know anyone named Todd? I’m sure you do. He’s that cheesy guy who wears so much fetidbody spray that your eyes burn when he walks into the room. He’s that dude who always has the top four buttons of his shirt unbuttoned to reveal his unsettling pop of Chest Hair, his two dangling Skin Tags and a mole, and his three gaudy gold chains. Todd is tawdry. He thinks he’s bringing so much to the table, but his presence is of little value. In fact, his presence kind of repulses you. Skin tags, gold chains, chest hair: that’s Todd.
examplification - Crystal: Spring Break this year was so freaking lame.
Paula: Why? I thought you guys were going to Spartan Beach.
Crystal: We did. It was ridiculous. The entire beach was full of Todds.
Paula: Full of what?
Crystal: Todds. Cheesy, tawdry, gaudy Todds. It was a sea of fake gold chains and chest hair.
Paula: Sounds awful. Sorry. Gina must’ve hated it, too.
Crystal: You know about her pregnancy scare with that random Todd?
Paula: What?
Crystal: Ha ha. Um, what?
