Answer 1

There was this fat chick in Kansas, she gave me cankles, but a good dose of penicillin took care of it

Answer 2

A cankle is a slang (and somewhat offensive) term used to describe a woman's calf and ankle that are of the same girth, thus being indistinguishable. Though it is common in obese women, the term can be used for both skinny or heavy women alike. The term was popularized in the movie Sallow Hal, where Jason Alexander's character describes Hal's (Jack Black) obese girlfriend as having such.

Answer 4

Cankle

Noun.: A sight common among the morbidly obese. The point at which one is so obese that there is no thinning of the leg between the calf and the ankle, which creates a sense of fusion between the two. Consequently "Cankle" comes from the fusion of CAlf and aNKLE.

Answer 5

No I don't, but cankles are fat ankles, a mixture of the world calf & ankle...If you have cankles, there is no definition as to where the calf muscle ends & ankle begins.
I like your definition of the word better though lol

Answer 6

Cankles are when your leg is connected to your foot and you can't see your ankle. Well i mean your leg is always connected to your foot but it looks like you have no ankle, like it's your leg then foot. I don't have cankles. Usually obese people have them.

Answer 7

I am cankle free and I attribute that to my life style.
I avoid all cankle websites.

Answer 8

It's when it looks like you have no ankles. I see this all the time: someone in basketball is wearing an ankle brace and you can't see the indentation where their ankle is supposed to be so it looks like a cankle. Definition:appearing or having no ankle.

Answer 9

There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.
