Hey Reddit... So this is gonna sound kind of dumb, but I swear I’m not making this up.

My wife (32F) and I (33M) have this inside joke we've had since we were dating. Years ago, we saw this ridiculous meme with the phrase "hooby dooby" and we just started using it as a catch-all for doing something shady, sneaky, or mildly betraying—usually in a joking way. Like if I ate the last slice of pizza and blamed the dog, she’d go “You did a hooby dooby!”

It was always just for laughs... until now.

A couple of nights ago, I noticed the last piece of the really expensive cheesecake I bought (the one from that fancy bakery I had to drive across town for) was missing. I had been saving it. I even wrote "DO NOT TOUCH" on the container like some sitcom character. I asked my wife if she saw it, and she just gave me this guilty look and said, “Hooby dooby.”

I laughed at first, but then I was actually kind of annoyed. That was my cheesecake. I was looking forward to it all week. I told her that I felt like she crossed a line, even if it’s just food. She said I was overreacting and that hooby dooby is literally our code for "don’t take it personally."

We didn’t fight exactly, but now things are a little tense. She thinks I’m being dramatic and letting a joke go too far. I feel like she’s hiding behind the joke to avoid saying she messed up.

So... AITA for getting upset over a hooby dooby?
