Today I used a phrase that I find deplorable. It marks the user as an uneducated bumpkin. I haven't used the phrase in a long time. In fact, once I left the Acadiana area, I didn't even hear it uttered. But somehow someway, I just came out of my mouth, and I know it's because I live in Acadiana again.

I saw my neighbor and her daughter (she's 11 no pics perverts) at the grocery store. The daughter watches our 1 year old daughter some times. I told my neighbor hello and turned to the girl and said it. "Hey boo."

Now, for you non Acadiana dwelling folks, boo isn't a term just used for your SO. It can be directed at basically anybody at anytime except between 2 men.

I don't know how or why hey boo came flying out of my mouth but it was so natural it scared me. That's it, we are hitching up the wagons and heading back east. BR may be a traffic hell, crime ridden dump, but no one there says "Hey boo."

TLDR: I'm talking like a coonass again and need to move.

You got bigger problems baw if you worried about one little coonass phrase. Be dressing up like kaitlyn Jenner before too long with that identity crisis.

What's wrong with that? She watches her while we are home and doing house/yard work. She needs to practice baby sitting. In, 2/3 years we will have a built in babysitter.

Did you say, "Mah"?

As in "Mah' hey Boo!"? Then you got problems.

An 11 year old is too young to babysit. I hope you don't leave your baby alone with her, because the 11 year old needs a babysitter!

I watched myself and kept my younger cousins in line from age 8 on.

No one ever died.

Hell, no trips to the hospital either.

It's from "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Scout says it to Boo Radley at the end.

I found what you said amusing but it's even more amusing to me that somebody would move to this stagnant shithole of a town for some kind of improvement over their current situation. I can't even wrap my head around that.

Oh well. Welcome to paradise.

You are full of shite. I've been in Acadiana for 45 years and I've never heard anyone call anyone else boo.

If you haven't progressed to, "Hey, cher," you ain't gone full coonass yet.
