Huh. I have a nun who was from the south, she teaches the Bible study I attend......she always says “nanny, nanny, boo boo”........is that a southern thing, too?

Never heard the nanny boo thing-but it sounds like a nun-ish substitute for profanity rather than a regional saying-kind of like oh, pooh, aww, shucks, etc.
