As in: "He is such a ___!"

Every time I write "hottie" my word spell check says it's wrong. I feel silly asking this but they both look strange to me.

I would use hottie, and Dictionary.com lists it.

More to the point, why would you use it? :D

My Webster says "hottie," and there's no listing for "hotty." Best I could do for you there was "potty."

Home - but for how long?
Er, excuse me but...

I presume you aren't talking about that dear old bed and foot warmer the hot water bottle, known as a hottie?

Or perhaps the term hottie transferred from bottle to bod? :)

Well, if someone fails to use an effective birth control method, it transfers back from bod to bottle . . . baby bottle.
