Jabba

Bloated crime boss

Jabba refers to Jabba the Hutt, the grotesque slug-like crime lord from the Star Wars films.

Used as a comparison, it describes someone extremely obese or physically repulsive: He sat there like Jabba, surrounded by food wrappers.

The name can also suggest corrupt power or sleazy menace.

The comparison is insulting.
