Bubba

Me: (to Jonah) Looking good bubba.

Val: Wait what? What did you call him?

Me: Huh?

Val: Our children are not "bubbas".

Me: I don't... what?

Val: Do not call our children "bubba". They are not "bubbas".

Me: I was being affectionate, not assigning a nick-name.

Val: Be affectionate with other words.

Me: Me calling our 21 month old son bubba casually once in the kitchen is not going to turn him into a fat unshaven hillbilly in greasy overalls.

Val: Yes. Yes it is. No "bubba". We have no "bubbas" here.
