Unknown word?

It's interesting what Google will come up with when you search an unknown word. :rolleyes:

What do you mean unknown word?

SHE: I think that you should clean the garage this weekend, dear.....

HE: I would love to Hunbut I have lots of turning to do...... Maybe next weekend?

Certainly part of the domestic English language... ;)

OK, you are correct. It is well known to married men.

Apparently John Lucas is preemptively conditioning himself to use the word. So when his wife texts him to clean the garage while he is working at the lathe, he can hit the Hunbut key on his cell phone.
