Sus
/sʌs/adjective
Short for "suspicious" — describing behavior, a person, or a situation that seems sketchy, untrustworthy, or questionable. Popularized globally by the game Among Us (2020), where players accuse each other of being the impostor. Now used broadly for anything that doesn't seem right.
“Why is he being so quiet? That's pretty sus.”
Non-Playable Character — a term borrowed from video games to describe a person who seems to act on autopilot, lack individual thought, follow social scripts unthinkingly, or show no original personality. An NPC mindlessly agrees with mainstream opinion without independent reasoning.
“He just repeated the talking points without any nuance — total NPC behavior.”
