The condition of being highly pleased, origin unknown. First used in the Film Review Show podcast when [Mark Kermode](Mark_Kermode) was reviewing [Bug](Bug) after seeing it at Cannes in 2006.
Shortly after [Wittertainment](Wittertainment) went onto [Twitter](Twitter), a number of Tweeters began mentioning how Mark used the "... as nuts" suffix to fit a lot of things - not just chuffed, but also The Unborn being "dumb as nuts", or [Franklyn](Franklyn) being "disappointing as nuts". [Simon Mayo](Simon_Mayo) wondered if nuts could possibly be that versatile.
