Chinese (Mandarin) slang

绝绝子

jué jué zǐ

Absolutely amazing — over-the-top internet praise.

Literally:
绝 peerless / extreme, doubled + 子 a cute suffix

How it's used

绝绝子 spread from Weibo and Xiaohongshu around 2021 as gushing praise for food, outfits, makeup or idols. It sounds very online and a bit performative, so plenty of people use it ironically or find it cringey; it can even be sarcastic (“this service is 绝绝子” about bad service). Strictly casual.
