Mr. Mom Reincarnated

This SERIOUSLY just took place at work near me:
Worker A and Worker B are talking about an upcoming meeting.
Worker A : "You said I can't come."
Worker B : "I said you don't have to come, but you can. You can come as a woobie."
Worker A : "As a what?"
Worker B : "As a support person.. ya know, a woobie."

For those of you who don't remember, in the movie, Mr. Mom (1983) one of the sons has a security blanket he calls a woobie.

Trying to get Kenny to give up his security blanket]
Jack Butler(Michael Keaton): I understand that you little guys start out with your woobies and you think they're great... and they are, they are terrific. But pretty soon, a woobie isn't enough. You're out on the street trying to score an electric blanket, or maybe a quilt. And the next thing you know, you're strung out on bedspreads Ken. That's serious.
