That party was naff — they ran out of beer, and the people were way too uptight. /i/

I've been to a few of those.

That last bit ain't a quote.

It means 'bad', but usually comes with connotations of cheap, tacky, poorly made, insincere, etc.

I think it also has the meaning of a total lack of cool.

I was reminded of this lot reading the "fear of disco" thread:
Liquid Gold

They were the musical epitome of naff to me.
