I'm truly startled that more people did not know about booboo.

poo poo, not booboo

Or maybe doo-doo.

No its not. There's a song about it. the word is used in all three of the Friday movies. It must be a black thing.

That can't be right. So the black word for "My significant other" is "boo".

And boo-boo is really poo-poo. So in essence you call the person you love shit?

It's not really any worse than calling your lover an "owie"

Well in this context there is no difference because "boo" used as a pet name for ones significant other isn't actually using either of the other two definitions.

"Havin money, and blowin hella chronic smoke
I bought my momma a Benz, and bought my Boo-Boo a Jag"

"And he probably won't make it, to see twenty-two
I put that on my momma, I'ma ride for you Baby Boo"

i bought my shit a jag. makes sense.

homonym - n.

1. One of two or more words that have the same sound and often the same spelling but differ in meaning, such as bank (embankment) and bank (place where money is kept).

So far it seems that booboo can mean a small insignificant injury, poop, a pet name for a loved one, or Yogi Bear's sidekick

I rarely get invited to parties and when I do, I don't go.. I'm what you call anti-social. v:)v

But this isn't about me. This is about people not knowing what booboo is and my dedication to education regarding defecation.
