Quoting from "Hacker's Dictionary," 1982 ASCII Edition:
QUUX [Invented by Steele. Mythically, from the Latin semi-deponent
verb QUUXO, QUUXARE, QUUXANDUM IRI; noun form variously QUUX
(plural QUUCES, Anglicized to QUUXES) and QUUXU (genitive plural is
QUUHUUM, four U's in seven letters).] 1. Originally, a meta-word
like FOO and FOOBAR. Invented by Steele for precisely this
purpose. 2. interj. See FOO; however, denotes very little disgust,
and is uttered mostly for the sake of the sound of it. 3. n.
Refers to one of three people who went to Boston Latin School and
eventually to MIT:
THE GREAT QUUX: Guy L. Steele Jr.
THE LESSER QUUX: David J. Littleboy
THE MEDIOCRE QUUX: Alan P. Swide
(This taxonomy is said to be similarly applied to three Frankston
brothers at MIT.) QUUX, without qualification, usually refers to
The Great Quux, who is somewhat infamous for light verse and for
the "Crunchly" cartoons. 4. QUULI: adj. Of or pertaining to a
QUUL. 5. n. The Micro Quux (Sam Lewis).

I guess by the reply that you would be up for such pleasures.
