Them calling him mama is the only thing more tragic/funny, because it's actually plausible. They were with the other kiddies then, Romy was probably teaching it to her kids, the boys picked up blonde=mama! 8D Mama mama up! Burt's all WHAT DID YOU DO.
(And then angst because Bro need his space and freedom so he's gonna take the kiddies and hit the open road, but then they won't have a mother figure and hey all these books yap about how it's so important to kids' mental health, bad enough they're stuck with him as a fath--an OLDER MALE ROLE MODEL, if there's no balance according to the books they're gonna be all sorts of messed up and probably have daddy fetishes and hit girls and burp at the table, and then Romy calms him down and they bro-hug it out. Because Romy/Burt bromance is the best bromance.)
