In a sentence:
"The thiccc corduroy beanbag chair in the den absorbed the entire corner of the room and, by all available evidence, a meaningful portion of the floor plan. The corduroy ridges ran east to west, like contour lines on a relief map of something majestic."
Etymology:
From bean (Old English bean, leguminous seed, though the modern fill is decidedly post-legume) + bag (Old Norse baggi, pack or bundle) + chair (Old French chaiere, from Latin cathedra, seat of authority). The word 'cathedra' also gives us 'cathedral.' This is relevant.

What makes a beanbag chair thiccc?
No legs and no vertical ambitions whatsoever. She settles into a room the way a glacier settles into a valley: slowly, completely, and with no intention of being moved before spring.
Is "thiccc" spelled with three c's?
Yes. The Thiccctionary house spelling uses three c's, distinguishing the editorial register from the colloquial "thicc" (two c's) and standard "thick" (one c).
