Every lovin' thing in the universe.
In the novel "Maze Runner", Chuck says to Newt, "What is wrong with you? You look like Klunk." Then Newt replies, "Every lovin' thing in the universe."
What does Newt mean by that? I don't get it at all.
(Apparently Klunk is a slang meaning poop, though)

It is slang meaning “every single thing.”

May I ask another question? Is the word "lovin" a kind of sarcasm, then?. I've searched on Internet what loving things mean and I've found, the words "linving thing" which mean "ser vivo". It's a word game, isn't it?

Every loving thing....Instead of using a vulgar word, like "every f*cking thing", he said "loving" but did so with a tone that implies he's upset and swearing without actually saying a cuss word.

this is just slang
"every single thing"
