I was standing at the kitchen sink, rinsing dishes when Roommate emerged from his room.
“Hey, Punk.” I said, loaded the dishwasher and snapped it shut. The microwave stopped microwaving and for a second or two, the kitchen was dead silent. Roommate was looking at me with the strangest expression on his face.
“What did you call me?”
“Punk. I said, hey, punk. Why? What did you think I said?”
Roommate just laughed. Hard. He put his hand out to the counter to steady himself. “I thought you said, ‘Hey, Pumpkin.”
“Ha! Okay, no. No, I didn’t. But from now on, you can bet your sweet ass that’s what I’m calling you.”
“You better not!”
Roommate poured some coffee, disappeared into his room. I was getting ready in the bathroom when he passed on his way out the door.
“Okay, I’m going to work.”
“Have a good day, Pumpkin.”
“Fuck you.”
So, what happens when the fish finds her bicycle? What will the Blog be called then?
I once called my SO Schmoopsie. He kindly asked me to never call him that again. That was about 8 months ago and he has been Schmoopsie ever since.
i think pumpkin (or punkin) is a very respectable nickname. my roommates actually do call me that!
My ex used to make up weird names on a weekly basis (the current being garbonzo…yes, I know he’s my ex, he apparently doesn’t)…so I had my revenge.
Mine? I stuck with one. I called him Pork Chop for about two years…the shortened version being Porky. He loved it when I slipped and called him Porky in front of his friends. Hehe.
‘The Tards From 5F.’
That’s what we call each other.
The story is as bad as you can imagine, and clearly, should not be shared.
The ladies call me oatmeal. 3 minutes and I’m done.
I can SO picture that conversation! Especially Roomie’s response
.
What a nice way to start the day. Like better than cornflakes.
I had a girlfriend start calling me snugglebunny. She didnt stay long.
My poor boyfriend is plagued with nicknames like “Kitten Soft” and “Rosebud”.
