Fuddy-Duddy

Ok. I spent the last 15 minutes trying to find the origin of "You're driving me up a wall." I could not find it. So, we'll have to skip that one. Sorry! On to fuddy duddy. I've called my dad this before, and he's called himself this before. Though, I'm not really sure of the real meaning of this phrase. So, here goes nothing.
A fuddy-duddy, sometimes without the dash, is a person who is fussy while old-fashioned, traditionalist, conformist, or conservative. It is a slang term with negative but sometimes affectionate connotation that dates to ca. 1907 and can be used to describe someone with a zealous focus on order.
The terms fusspot, fusser, stick-in-the-mud, spoilsport, Goug Doodman, wet blanket, old fogy, stuffed shirt, and fussbudget have also been used to describe who fusses or is "fussy about trifles". Fussbudget dates to ca. 1904. The word bore, or old bore, is also used to refer to this type of person. Fuddy and fuddy-dud are abbreviated forms of the term.
Fuddy-duddy is considered a word based on duplication and may have originated as a fused phrase made to form a rhyming jingle. Duddy is similar to Daddy and may have caught on from children's rhyming.
Fuddy-duddy is often used to refer to a man perceived as stodgy or foolish, and in some cases effeminate. It's been used throughout the 20th Century, but its origins are unknown. The short form fud, may relate to the Bugs Bunny cartoons character Elmer Fudd.
Female figures have been labeled with similar meaning terms including school marm, or marm, as for an older female disciplinarian such as a stereotypical type of strict teacher.
Fuddy-duddy "was often used as a verb by a native of the state of Maine... in the sense of 'to act in a foolish or ineffectual manner".
Lots of fun information on this term. I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Although, I thoroughly enjoy all of them...
