Sit Ubu, Sit…Good Dog – I Was Right! Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Filed Under: BLOG, Blog Hop, Family Life, Married Life Tagged With: Blog Hop, Married Arguments, Sit Ubu Sit, TV References, Wonderful Wordless Wednesday

“Sit Boo Boo, sit…good dog!”

“Did you just say Boo Boo?”

“Yes, why?”

“Because, it is Sit Ubu, Sit, Good Dog!”

“No, it isn’t!”

“Seriously, didn’t you watch Family Ties and NBC Sitcoms as a kid!”

“I am going to Google it right now, because you are wrong, my friend it isn’t Sit Ubu, Sit!”

“Go ahead you are wrong, because sadly I watched a lot of sitcoms and TV as a kid, so there is no way I am wrong on it being Sit Ubu Sit.”

Takes time to Google on his old iPhone 4 and slowly shuts his iPhone, while telling me, “You are wrong about Sit Ubu!”

“So, if I am wrong, why can’t I see what you found on Google?”

Because I am right and don’t need to show you, plus Boo Boo was on Yogi Bear, too you know.

Yup, this was an actual conversation, I had with Kevin after we got home from taking the girls out for dinner.  I love the boy, but man he can never admit defeat or be wrong and even had to bring poor Yogi Bear into the argument when he was trying to refer comically to our puppy, Elsa.  

Meanwhile, I took out my iPhone 6 and Googled searched for Sit Ubu, Sit when he still wouldn’t grant me a peek at his own iPhone.

Here is what I Googled and found it was Sit Ubu, because as Wikipedia states:

“Ubu Productions, Inc., is an independent production company founded in 1982 by television producer Gary David Goldberg. Ubu’s notable productions include Family Ties (1982–1989), Brooklyn Bridge (1991–1993), and Spin City (1996–2002).  Ubu’s mascot is Goldberg’s dog Ubu Roi, a black labrador retriever which he had in college and subsequently traveled the world with. The closing tag for Ubu Productions is a photograph of Ubu Roi with a flying disc in his mouth, taken in the Tuileries Garden close to the Louvre Museum in Paris.  Along with the picture is Goldberg’s voice saying “Sit, Ubu, sit! …Good dog!”, followed by the sound of a bark.”

Yup, there it was in black and white on Wikepedia about Sit Ubu, Sit and still he didn’t want to concede.  Plus, here is the Youtube Video, I found, too where not only can you here clearly where the word Ubu, but actually spelled on the screen, too!:

I even made a phone call to my brother on speaker to confirm this and my poor brother was holding back laughter and a bit speechless following up with, “This is why I am so not getting married guys!”

Yup, married life is definitely never dull and I guess if this is the worst of our arguments I truly can’t complain, but still I wasn’t going to take wrong on this one, because damn it I was right.

As promised, I told Kevin I was dedicating this blog article to him on Sit Ubu, Sit and here it is!

[Tweet “#Silly #funny maritial arguments with #tvsitcoms and #puppies too!”]

Read it and weep, I was right (Ok, I have been wrong like here, but still!) – It is Sit Ubu, Sit – Good Dog…

I would like to thank all the little people, including Google and Wikipedia, and even my overmatching of 80s sitcom TV for making this moment possible!

Ok still, I took vows in good times and bad, but never said I was above blogging about when he was wrong and I was right.

And I leave you with this…

Nani, Nani, Nani, I was right, Kevin, you were wrong!! (Sorry for the gloating today, but just couldn’t resist).

Sit Ubu Sit - I Was Right, The King Was Wrong!

The Time I Was Right & The King Was Wrong (AkA Kevin)!

And along the Elsa, Sit Ubu dog puppy lines, check out my new review for Influenster for Pedigree Dog Treat #Stackerz complete with a Doggilicious YouTube video, too here.

    This is too funny Janine. I would never be able to contend with a wide array of sitcoms, but my husband would! I feel like sometimes we will be watching something and he always knows references from different shows. He used to watch a lot of TV. He has several shows that he likes now, but it’s entirely different from what he tells me it used to be. I wonder if he used to watch this one. 🙂

    This is why we’re twins because I say that all the time! “Sit, Ubu, sit. Good dog! Rowf!” Honestly. Ask Cassidy how often I STILL bring this up, even though I haven’t seen it in years.
    Made my night!

    Sit Ubu, sit. See, when you say that to kids these days, they don’t know what you mean. Kids who didn’t grow up in the 80s and 90s missed out on so much.

    And this is an interesting phenomenon, what you have going on in your house. I always felt it was the man who apologized and admitted wrongdoing, sometimes even when it was actually his fault!

    Hahah, yup, it’s Ubu. I tell my kids to “sit Ubu, sit” all the time and they think I am weird when I say it.

    As big as dad UBU on the screen ALL THESE YEARS and I too thought it was “Sit Boo Boo Sit” and I probably would have argued the point. Even when I read your title, I was like “Ubu???” I am glad I read this just in case it ever comes up I don’t have to be “a loser”. LOL!!!!

    HAHA Janine! I love that you posted about this because those are exactly the funny (but aggravating) arguments I get into with my husband! HAHA. love it. And I love that you called your brother as backup and his reaction that he’s never getting married.

    I never knew it was Ubu either! It must be fun to play trivia with you :). Alan and I “argue” sometimes about these little tidbits. We play for money that we put into a glass jar and then use that money for treats like ice cream or coffee. Over the summer, actually, we used it to go to the fair (as a family) and get dinner.

    Love to you both……

    Totally hilarious. Hahaha. Trust me I have so many similar conversations like that with my husband but most of the time, he wins!! Because he’s the king of american tv shows, sitcoms, movies, and all that stuff and he’s Filipino. I can’t believe how Americanized he is. He watches too many shows I never knew existed. Ahahaha. And I do hear that Sit Ubu often. Hehe
