A Pain in the Buddle

My sister is twelve but she has a really dirty mouth. These days I guess it isn't so odd that young kids curse constantly. The one word that my dad really hates is butt hole. I really don't know why but there it is. Out of all the words that come out of her mouth that is the one he dislikes most. He says it's vulgar, as if the other fifteen words that escape her lips are not.

It makes him pretty upset when she calls him a butt hole so she does it on purpose. The sad thing is that when my dad gets really angry about something he laughs. He says, he laughs because otherwise he'd kill her but frankly I think he finds it funny.
One day my dad comes home from work and is already more annoyed than usual when he walks through the door and my sister starts with the name-calling and the cursing. Well, like I said in a previous post my dad does not just take the name-calling but starts in on it too. When he gets flustered my dad comes up with some odd comebacks, butternut squash head is one of them. But my sister's nickname is another, Buddle.
Like I said before he hates the word butt hole but he still wanted to use it. Sadly kids these days will throw whatever you do and say back in your face. So he mushed the words together and came up with Buddle.
Instead of just using the insult once, the name stuck to my sister like gum to the underside of a table.

The funniest thing is that Buddle pops up in real life sometimes. There is a street in a town close by called Buddle St. Being avid soccer fans we also learned that there is a soccer player with the last name Buddle. Needless to say he has become one of our favorites, just because of the name.
So there you have it, Butternut Squash Head and Buddle, sisters with nicknames courtesy of their father.
