Cheeser

A 'cheeser' is a person, typically in informal contexts, who is perceived as excessively eager to please, insincerely friendly, or overly flattering in their interactions, often with the goal of gaining favor, attention, or some advantage. This behavior can manifest as constant smiling, forced enthusiasm, and a tendency to agree with others without genuine conviction. The term carries a negative connotation, implying a lack of authenticity and a manipulative nature. The cheeser's actions may be seen as transparent and ultimately self-serving, calculated to exploit social dynamics for personal gain. It's the social equivalent of spreading on a layer of fake cheese.
