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.
