  1. Whenever I ask my youngest child the reason for something not done, or wrong, ect, she always replies "chunky Bill" did that. Your word made me think of her imaginary person who is to blame for lots of things. Thanks for the explanation and the word to go with it. I will share with Alexis. Love you. Lisa
