[quote=Anonymous]I was talking to a mother a few months ago who had a 2.5 yr old (same as mine) and a little guy - maybe 8 months - who was teething. We were talking about his teething and I said to the baby something like, "I am sorry you feel so cruddy" - and the mother bristled and asked me to please not use that word around her 2.5 yr old. I asked again if she meant "cruddy" and she said yes, it was inappropriate. I went home, looked it up on every slang dictionary I could find on the internet and asked everyone I knew - and DCUM - is "cruddy" has some sexual or otherwise inappropriate connotation and got a resounding "NO!". Same with "goofball". Who the hell knows what is wrong with some of these women. [/quote]
