About

Chuddha, sometimes spelled Chudda, refers to a Chudjak variation drawn to resemble Gautam Buddha, the central religious figure in Buddhism, depicted wearing an orange robe. Chuddha typically references the Nothing Ever Happens meme, with Chuddha often being shown to interrupt people asking, "But what if—" with, "It won't." Memes about Chuddha gained traction on X / Twitter and 4chan in late 2024.
