Hog
Hog means someone who takes way more than their share, whether that's space, food, time, or attention.
People call someone a hog when they are acting greedy, grabby, or way too self-serving. It can land as a joke with friends or as a sharper insult when somebody keeps taking without checking in, like monopolizing snacks, hogging the game, or hogging the conversation.

What People Mean When They Say Hog
At its core, hog points to overdoing it on taking. The word paints someone as the person who grabs the biggest slice, the most airtime, or the best spot and leaves everybody else squeezed out.
It is usually less about one single act and more about the pattern. If someone keeps acting like everything is theirs first, people start calling them a hog because it signals selfishness in a way that feels immediate and easy to understand.
Where You'll See Hog
You hear it in group chats, game lobbies, family dinners, and comment sections when somebody is being greedy or greedy-looking. It shows up most naturally around shared stuff: food, controller time, bathroom time, speaker time, or any resource people are supposed to split.
Online, hog can also stretch into attention behavior. If one person keeps dominating a stream chat, a debate, or a group project, calling them a hog says they are taking over the whole lane, not just using it.

Sounds right: Don't be a hog, let somebody else have a turn.
Sounds forced: Your leadership style is hog-coded, and that's a real hog issue.
Is Hog Still Used?
Yes. It is still active because it is short, visual, and instantly clear.
It is not trendy in a flashy way, but it stays useful because people still need a fast word for someone who takes more than they should.
