And a much longer discussion in the Will Smith slaps Chris Rock thread, because why not. Also I call my wife Hal which is the first three letters of her name which is Halyeighy
I knew a couple in college who exclusively referred to each other as “puddin” and it always made me gag.
Just makes me think of Harley Quinn and the Joker’s relationship something tells me that relationship didn’t last
Yea when Margot Robbie does something that's annoying - I can't fathom how much I would hate a normal person doing this.
Right on queue: Wife gets home with gf - "You won't believe what this little slut did today" I'm sure I'll probably believe it - but tell me more about what the little slut did today during your expedition to Trader Joe's.
When we were dating, my wife and I started calling each other Angel, a super-cheesy and ironic way to prove to ourselves that we were better than all those other couples. Fifteen plus years later, the irony has worn off yet we still call each other Angel. We played ourselves.
I used to call my wife frumpy occasionally when she was grumpy because I thought it basically meant the same thing. She informed me of the real definition and now I've moved to doing every time she's grumpy
I had a coworker who would only refer to his wife as Pookie. He also changed his tone to be really high pitched. She would constantly call him at work upset about some nonsense and he would respond on the phone like, "Oh no, what's wrong Pooookie?" In a room of 25 guys. It was gross and weird. Of course they're Disney weirdos too which probably explains it.
I had a roommate in college that acted like that with his GF. It was so fucking annoying, we would call him out on it and he acted like he had no idea his voice changed when she called
Baby-talking a baby is weird. Baby-talking an adult is disgusting. Maybe a very little puppy. And only if you're saying, "who's a good boy?"
We went on a double date (normal dinner I guess) - but the girl did this the entire meal feeding him and saying "who's a good boy". I did the fake phone call to walk out and texted my wife to just come up with an excuse to bail. She told them I had just lost a relative and then they saw me outside and asked omg what happened and I had no idea what she had relayed. I was not ready to improv and it went terribly.
My wife’s pet name is Amber. Her real name is Stephanie. When we first started dating, we went out with a coworker who is from Ecuador (and is ESL). I introduced her as Stephanie and he said “Nice to meet you, Amber”. Twelve years later and she’s still Amber.
Fun fact about living with two women - their term of endearment to each other is slut but if they're aggressively upset with each other the term is princess. If "slut" did something I know it's casual conversation - if "this fucking princess" ever gets said I know I'm going to have to listen to a rant. All words are made up.
I’ve also started calling my wife a new pet name which she really doesn’t like and will certainly end poorly for me…but yolo. One of the cats sleeps on her pillow most nights. It’s a king size pillow so there’s plenty of room for them to share. The pillow sleeping cat is a long hair and prone to getting dingleberries stuck in his butt fur. One night, a few weeks back, he must have gotten poop stuck in his fur and took his spot on her pillow. She woke up with her face laying in a stripe of cat shit and me calling her Two Face.
