to detest the use of the word 'Bubba'?

[cheapandcheerful]

...the word you're looking for is 'BABY'.

Omg you are me!

YANBU at all.

I'm with you on this one.
My friend calls her ds bubba, he's 8!

Come ON.

Pedants's Corner is thataway

My best friend (who I LOVE dearly) is the worst for this; bubs, baba and bubba etc.

No? How about 'Bubsywubsers'?

YANBU, also detest "lil man"

Oooo, I hate 'babby'.

Why? Why deliberately speak badly??

DS christened his grandfather 'Bubba' almost before he could speak. It stuck and now everyone calls him Bubba. Ridiculous but these things happen.

YADNBU. Same goes for other crap non-words like dindins and drinkypoos.

It's one of the things I like about MN.

It's a place for whimsy eschewers.

I call my dd14 bubba all the time

I find "mummy's little soldier" has a galvanising effect on teens. Especially in public.

Aww, what's wrong with me, hubs and lil bubba going on holibobs?

^That hurt. Physically hurt.

YANBU. They are usually the same people who talk about their hubby and their holibobs.

Ha! Like minds Showy

What's wrong with holibobs?

Hubby or my other half

It's awful. Then again so is referring to your child/partner or other as 'dear son, dear husband' and other such nauseating shortenings. Just have to let these things go as irritating as they are.

Oh my dd2 has a bunny called bubba (she can say bunny yet) bubba goes everywhere with us! she also has a spare called more bubba

A bit we worried all the local mners are secretly judging the continuous usr of the word

Sorry posting on phone!

Should say can't and god knows where that we came from

But hun - my hubby calls me bubba all the time and I luvs it

YANBU

I hate it, and babby and mom and hun.

YANBU I despise the term!
