+indee49 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 What does CHUD mean/stand for? Quote Link to comment
+kunarion Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) I tried a search and got a lotta them. That was frustrating. Sooo many “CHUD” defined as “CHUD”. Evidently it's an in-joke, and I'm not invited. These caches identified as “CHUD” appear to be in drainage areas or culverts, so that's a clue. However, “CHUD” seems to be more about the people than the place. I saw a couple of references that say “Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers” (from a movie), and I can't tell if that's the real term or another in-joke. Anyway, my best guess it's a reference that a cache is underground (in a culvert, maybe), and that if you go hunt it, you're the "CHUD". Edited April 11, 2020 by kunarion 1 Quote Link to comment
+cerberus1 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Similar to kunarion, I see it as caches in ditches, culverts, drainage pipes and such, and the CHUD reference was just to give a bit of spookiness to it. - That "look over your shoulder ,or you might escape holding your own intestines" kinda humor. You have a few of them in your state. Quote Link to comment

+Jayeffel Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 makes sense to me . Quote Link to comment
+RobinsonClan56 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I finally tracked this down. kunarion was correct - I am guessing it is a reference to the movie, not unlike folks who do a Harry Potter or Star Wars based series. Looks like the caches are all underground. Quote Link to comment

Looks like the caches are all underground. When our library reopens I'll see if I can rent this movie. Curiosity has won. 1 Quote Link to comment
