Etymology
Etymology 1
From the 1999 Simpsons episode "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)", featuring a farming supply store, "Sneed's Feed & Seed", from the English surname Sneed; the joke is that the sign says the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying it formerly rhymed with Chuck instead ("Chuck's Fuck and Suck"). The sign became a meme on the image board 4chan around 2012. It came to be used as a substitute for seethe (e.g. in the phrase "cope and seethe" → "cope and sneed").
Etymology 2
A habitational name derived from any of various places in England named Sneyd or Snead, from Old English snǣd (“something cut off, a fragment, a detached piece of ground”).
