'thicc' should maybe be aliased into 'thick'

No. Fun tags are actually “a thing” that is being discussed - should we stick to a flat taxonomy of only those classifications and terms necessary to slice the data? Or should we include fun terms that the fandom has used to express these same things, or should we do both?
 
Thick is the proper taxonomy. Thicc is the socially lexical taxonomy. Why not use both?
 
For me, it’s like knowing that the database is UTF-8 but the user interface is JIS X 0212. They both work at the user interface layer. One is the way it is at the data layer, the other is what the user wants to use.

Sure. There are “fun” tags. But in this case both are used for the same thing and one is a meme that will eventually run its course. I mean it will probably wise fwom its gwave eventually, as memes are wont to do. But still. Proper spelling.
yttyr

Not sure whether this is resolved or not yet byt may I just add that there’s only one single image on this site with the thicc tag that actually has the word thicc in it and/or references it as a meme.
