I thought you were gonna say he named his nubbin Patrick because another word is stump and the lead singer of Fall Out Boy is Patrick Stump 😅😅 I was about to say I've never met a papa who listens to fall out boy lol
🥺 that is very wholesome. I like it when older people with kids and grandkids have a little cultural touchstone to relate to them. Like it’s not the same understanding but it’s “I see you. I listen to you. I like a little bit of this same thing.” It’s NICE, dang it!
My father is a below the knee amputee, and he also called his limb a “stump”. It had its own way of being cute, he named it Mr. Stumpie, and he was our family pet throughout childhood.
As a physiotherapist, I ask my amputee patients to name their prosthetic with a name they like, just so they feel bonded with it and find something positive from something so traumatic
@Mars If the dad was fine with it there's nothing wrong with it. Your discomfort doesn't mean he was uncomfortable. It sounds like a very dad thing to do.
Momma's was stump or stumpy. She was missing her left hand, just above the wrist. It didn't get the best circulation. When I was too hot, or had a fever, or panic attack, she would press it against my eye. It feels so sweet and wholesome to me. Until one of my friends from school saw my MOTHER CRAMMING HER STUMP INTO MY EYE SOCKET. Lmfao!!!
I had a buddy I used to hang out with a lot in college who had neither arms nor legs and went by the nickname Nubbs. Dude could drink like a fish, and had no trouble lighting a cigarette without hands. I was always working out a lot because I was a bit fat, so he told me that if I wanted to lose some weight quickly he knew a good doctor!
I guess I could call mine Corgi. We inherited my wife’s grandmother’s Corgi. ‘Stumps’ are what we call the short stumpy legs, and ‘Nubbin’ is the I guess residual tail after is docked. 😎
I'm 5months pregnant now, and my babe has full legs but for the first ultrasound babe only had little nubbins and has officially gotten that name 😂👌💓 love it. I'd say nub/nubbins is definitely the best
My papa had to get a toe and two fingers amputated for health reasons. We call his little finger nubs different things. His pointer finger is "just enough" because it's his trigger finger and they left him just enough to pull a trigger. His middle finger is the "baby bird".
#nubbinwave You are both awesome! My mom calls hers her stump, when she isn't insisting that the rest of her leg is still there. She has phantom pain and feeling.
As someone who has all their original meat limbs, I would never refer to someone else's stump or nubbin as such until I knew they liked the term. For example, my cousin's fiance Tommy is a below the knee amputee, and the few times I've had reason to refer to his leg I've just called it his leg, because we're not very close, you know? And as a writer who sometimes writes an amputee character I tend to have him or characters close to him refer to his shoulder disarticulation point and hemipelvectomy site as stumps because he's, like, a very classically masculine guy (motorcycles, guns, walk-fifty-years-in-the-desert-repenting-to-find-your-true-love-because-she-called-out-for-you, you know the archetype) and I don't think he knows enough other amputees who aren't a similar kind of guy to have been faced with the word nub or nubbin before in that context.
Dead ass, every time she said nubin in other videos, I thought she was talking about the metal point that locks into the prosthetic. Thank you for educating!
I love it when you wave with it. That's a talent only leg amputees have and it's awesome. Hands are busy and you still want to wave? Use the nub? That sounded like a commercial.
When I was a kid we had a budgie called Stubbins as a combination of stump and nubbin, because his previous owners kept him in too small a cage resulting in his long tail feathers being broken off by the bars and leaving him with a nubby little tail.
My aunt calls what's left of the finger that got ripped in half by a band saw at work her nubbin'! It's why I keep watching your videos, because that's familiar and I get to be comfortable while learning more of what it's like for people living with amputations.
Just want to say. Though I still have both my legs atm, I may not in the future. 1 is likely to go eventually. Your videos are helping me to prepare for a lot of things I would never have been aware, yet alsp showing an amazing outlook to some unfortunate circumstances. Keep up all the amazing stuff you do. 😊
Every time I see a little leg nubbin wiggle like that I remember the video of the nubbin with big googly eyes. Then I forget nubbin is attached to a humanoid and i just wanna pet it 😅
I am not an amputee but I have a colostomy. Something they suggested when I first got it was to name it. My current melted fruit snack of a friend is named rose. I feel like I can relate a little to this video. Thank you for showing it's okay to be comfortable with your disability and medical devices!
I like it! Practical, accurately descriptive (as far as all the colostomies I've cared for any way) and creative 10/10 nubbins 🌹 I had an elderly gentleman who called his colostomy his blowhole. He was a high school biology/life science teacher before he retired. I assumed that's why he chose blowhole. My favorite little lady was a breast cancer survivor and had her breast removed on one side. She had prosthetics she'd wear to fill out that side of her bra. She'd always yell from inside the bathroom when I was helping get her dressed for dinner "grab me my chicken cutlet".
I'm a finger amputee (right hand little finger) and they actually shaped by hand so I didn't have a nub. Although it took years for me to have the spatial awareness to stop banging the little "almost not there" nub on the edges of countertops. Putting my right hand into pants pockets was uncomfortable for about 10 years.
I kinda like nubbin' bc every time you call it that its like referring to your fun little friend, which makes sense bc i remember you talking about building a relationship with your little nubbin friend
I’m above the knee amputee, kinda hate the “stump” seems harsh lol I named my leg shortie and my grandson uses it all the time. I do high kicks 😂 have to have humor, crying takes too much out of you ❤
Aka here; nub, nubbin, stump, stumplet. All are good. Residual limb is fine but long winded. If I'm speaking with someone new or a medical professional i will usually use either stump or residual limb. However, as somebody who used to rock my knee a lot, that behavior has remained. His name is thumper :)
After amputation mine had the shape of roast so his name is Ludwig Von Schweinenbraten. It’s German for Great Warrior of the Porkroast, courtesy of my German brother-in-law. We call him “Luddy”. 😊
Ah I'm different. I hate the term nub, just sounds... gross to me. I use stump or just gesture to my prosthetic and say leg when talking to people that I can tell aren't very familiar with disabilities. I don't like how long it is, but I do like residual limb, it feels the most accurate and makes it feel normal
My son has half an arm with a half developed thumb so that's what the nubbin is too us. I call the whole thing his stub. Stump/nub, and like the stub of a ticket
I work with patients who have had amputations due to diabetes and I never know what to call the unamptated leg. I only speak with them on the phone, so I just try to keep really good notes to ensure I can just reference the the based on right/left. Saying "real leg" doesn't seem appropriate.
My one dog Roxi, we rescued her last May at nearly five years. Someone had illegally cut her tail off as a puppy 😢😢, we calmly her nubby nubby as a nickname 😊
My Papa had named his nubbin Patrick after the SpongeBob character because he loved his grandkids and saw some humour in it.

“our family pet” that sounds mad weird.
@@ihateallyall We never had the opportunity to get a dog so it was a work-around. That was just the only way I could explain it.

@Mars If the dad was fine with it there's nothing wrong with it. Your discomfort doesn't mean he was uncomfortable. It sounds like a very dad thing to do.
That’s adorable 😂
The little nubbin’ wave 😂 love it
We do
I can’t agree more 😂❤
That was too cute!
My old dog was missing one paw, but still had the leg. He’d poke us with his nub when he wanted attention
@@icarusbinns3156 that’s so sweet 🥹
Yeah its so cute

lol im also the emergency human ice pack for my friends and family
Thats really sweet
Also lmao
What an image! 😂 To your friend it probably looked like she put a whole hand in your eye socket 😅

That’s Hella funny,dude!
PFFT 😂 becoming nubbs#2 would definitely make u lose weight
the nubbin wave gets me every time! it's so cute!
My mom calls hers “Omega” because it’s the new end.
Your mom may be a JRPG boss, watch if intense music begins playing in he vicinity
Hah! Thats genius!
Ooo I love it!! Beautiful and badass sounding lol
Your mom’s cool as hell dude
Your mom is cool as heck
If you two started a podcast and called it The Nub Club, my world would be complete.
I guess I could call mine Corgi. We inherited my wife’s grandmother’s Corgi. ‘Stumps’ are what we call the short stumpy legs, and ‘Nubbin’ is the I guess residual tail after is docked. 😎
Does that mean your mother in law was the queen?
I'm 5months pregnant now, and my babe has full legs but for the first ultrasound babe only had little nubbins and has officially gotten that name 😂👌💓 love it. I'd say nub/nubbins is definitely the best
The little waggle wave! So cute!
My papa had to get a toe and two fingers amputated for health reasons. We call his little finger nubs different things. His pointer finger is "just enough" because it's his trigger finger and they left him just enough to pull a trigger. His middle finger is the "baby bird".
Was distracted by Jo’s amazing jumper! 😻
Brit!
I was expecting you both to do an high nubbin for a second there
Now I'm expecting it too, it would have been perfect 😄
I love your little nubbin waves Jo. They make me so happy
I love how charmingly cute the nubbin waves are.
The nubbin wave sent me! So so CUUUUTE!!!!
I love the little wave you both did with your nubbins! Cute name for cute ladies 😍
I love the little nub wiggle/wave 😂🥹
The nubbin wave is so adorably cute 🥰
I am always amazed with people who can successfully walk on two prosthetics!
I call them two beautiful, amazing, strong women!
I've always loved the word nubbin in general! It's cute and fun to say 😁
#nubbinwave You are both awesome! My mom calls hers her stump, when she isn't insisting that the rest of her leg is still there. She has phantom pain and feeling.
The wave! So cute! 😆
The little shake at the end made me laugh lol so cute you both are ❤️ beautiful

"Lil nub" shakes like nub cutely
You two are adorable :-)
Whenever I heard "nubbin" I think of a video game item called a "coral nub" and the description of it is "there's nubbin' better!"
I love it
Love the nubbin waves😄
Nubbin' is adorable
I love it when you wave with it. That's a talent only leg amputees have and it's awesome. Hands are busy and you still want to wave? Use the nub?
That sounded like a commercial.
Ayo,Ill take 5
Idk why but when you wave your nubbin it's so cute
Gawd.. adorable!!
Love your little 'nubbins' 😂😂😂😂
Your friend has a really cute smile and seems sweet!
I hope she's on more :-D
When I was a kid we had a budgie called Stubbins as a combination of stump and nubbin, because his previous owners kept him in too small a cage resulting in his long tail feathers being broken off by the bars and leaving him with a nubby little tail.
I watched this like 20 times to watch y'all's nub wave at the end. So cute.
The Nubbin wave is 🔥
You guys are so amazing
My aunt calls what's left of the finger that got ripped in half by a band saw at work her nubbin'! It's why I keep watching your videos, because that's familiar and I get to be comfortable while learning more of what it's like for people living with amputations.
My great aunt Peggy called hers a peg leg. She was fun at parties. RIP aunt Peggy, your sense of humor lives on
I think the affectionate nickname "Stump Nubbin" covers all bases.
all i see is bautiful ladiys
Y'all are so beautiful and gorgeous y'all both have. Beautiful personality y'all keep up the good vibes Memphis TN ❤😍👍💕

Off topic but Jo's sweater is 🤌🤌
I agree, I like nub or nubbin ❤

Nubbin waves at the end🥰
Nubbin is my fav.
And it waves! Hi nubbins!
Nu🅱️🅱️in
Your lil nubby 🥺
Everytime you take your prosthetic off and I've forgotten what the attachment looks like I'm like "it has a weapon on it!"
I'm a finger amputee (right hand little finger) and they actually shaped by hand so I didn't have a nub.

I like her new friend
I call mine above the knee LITTLE LEG😊
Mr. McNubbins is such a cute name
Damn I wondered where the beautiful ladies went 😍
I had a teacher who had a three legged cat and he named it stumpy so anytime I hear the name stump that’s all I can think of
We love the nubbin'
I’m above the knee amputee, kinda hate the “stump” seems harsh lol I named my leg shortie and my grandson uses it all the time. I do high kicks 😂 have to have humor, crying takes too much out of you ❤
My dads is his Stub or stump, or nub. We make a lot of one and a half leg jokes. 😂
Ah yes my favourite chumbawamba song stump nubbin
Stump here!
I call mine Peggy!
I've had mine off since I was a baby and I've always called it my mini leg 😂 stump is one I hate haha
I smell chemistry ❤
I'm still waiting for more nub puppetry lol

I just prefer to call mine stumpie or stumpsen and he is my new pet
Nublet… you have a nublet Jo ❤
I call it my stub. My sock is nicknamed the Drippy Drip.
I would call it a bud like a flower bud
Legette literally means small leg.
My son has half an arm with a half developed thumb so that's what the nubbin is too us. I call the whole thing his stub. Stump/nub, and like the stub of a ticket
That’s Mister Nubbin lol
I work with patients who have had amputations due to diabetes and I never know what to call the unamptated leg. I only speak with them on the phone, so I just try to keep really good notes to ensure I can just reference the the based on right/left. Saying "real leg" doesn't seem appropriate.
Cybernetic attachment point
Nubbin wave!
I call mine Stumpy.
Stump nubbin'
Stump is like the word moist. Nothing wrong with it but it sounds weird.
She's Nubs by NOFX feels relevant here.
Blokes chill😮
My one dog Roxi, we rescued her last May at nearly five years. Someone had illegally cut her tail off as a puppy 😢😢, we calmly her nubby nubby as a nickname 😊
I call mine Mr. Nubbz.
One, two, three, four, I declare a nub war?
Whenever I see someone with a missing leg, I think of the guy that was in dolphin tale that’s all I think of
I call mine the McNubbin
Just waves bye with their nub 😂
Jo keeping her intact leg out of frame. :3c
