"Babushka".... Grandma?

I was just about to comment the same thing. I would be creeped out if I were a guy and a girl called me Babushka.

Actually, I would be creeped out to call a guy most anything on this list in public. 

Joy Carletti Begbie • May 19, 2010

I would love to be called Man Candy in public =)

George Tang • May 19, 2010

This list is hilarious!

I just attempted to read this list aloud to my husband without laughing. I was unsuccessful.

Joy Carletti Begbie • May 19, 2010

these are things I might call a male stripper ...

At George: that's a scary list, you might need some counseling...
At Adora: Keep notes, tell us all about it...

haha wow, I might add some more that pop to mind later if I get a chance

I love this!!! Great work-reading.

Adrienne Chung • May 19, 2010

George, I think you have assembled a list of 'pet names that a man has for his own penis.'

Except Oompa-Loompa. I don't think that one works.

I think I'm going to give "Meat Sauce" a try today.

Adrienne Chung • May 19, 2010

Stunning. Dripping with testosterone.

Update: my boyfriend did not respond in any out-of-the-ordinary way to "Hey Meat Sauce!" I think that's a good thing.

Adrienne Chung • May 19, 2010

Joy - that could explain Babushka in some cases.
