Definitions and meanings of "Cockchafers"

What do we mean by cockchafers?

Any of the large European beetles from the genus Melolontha that are destructive to vegetation.

1. A large, flying beetle which looks like a giant, scarier version of a Bee. It is referred to in the U.K as a 'May Bug'. Not many people seem to remember them as they are rare in places but in some areas it is a common activity for children to go round swatting them with tennis racquets. They look insanely scary and there is a myth that they like to get tangled up in your hair, resulting in the possibility of having to have your hair shaved off. This is just a story though and they are completely harmless and bare no danger to humans. They are a known pest to farming, as they leave their larvae on the ground, resulting in crops being damaged. 2. A term used to describe cheap underwear such as boxer shorts which are fitted wrong and give you chafing round your legs. Urban Dictionary

A small tight vagina that needs alot of lube! Urban Dictionary

1. large grey/brown beetle 2. a woman with a dried up vagina Urban Dictionary

An unsightly guy at a swimming pool with far too tight speedos, in clearly noticeable pain, but thinking the chicks are digging him. Urban Dictionary

A work shift while one is standing and walking about that lasts for more than twelve hours. Urban Dictionary
