Buns describes something terrible, disappointing, or just plain bad. For example, if a movie flops, a sports team loses badly, a game glitches nonstop, or food tastes off, a person may describe all of those things as "buns." It serves as a cleaner, more lighthearted substitute for the vulgar term for a person's rear end, making it easier to use in mixed company or online spaces with moderation rules.
The term gained traction in the late 2010s and early 2020s in New York City hip-hop culture, before spreading to online gaming communities and across TikTok, Twitter (X), and group chats. You will see it most commonly used by Gen Zers and younger millennials, often as a quick reaction to something perceived as awful or underwhelming.
