Well, I know that "Babbitt" is a Sinclair Lewis novel from the 1920s. Did you mean "Bobbitt", as in the man whose wife cut off his 'best friend'?

To get jokes on FR, you not only have to get the references, but also compensate for what people say as opposed to what they mean. :)

Yes!

(It's a quote of a little kid mis-speaking in the original post; so you have to give some leeway.)
