Hi,
I was watching television again and again I heard something strange, at least it sounded strange to me.
Is what appropriate in this sentence? Please, help me out @Alan
Thank you
I take it no reply means it’s quite ok.
@Masme Hi Marc, hope you are well. 
This sentence is correct with what. The reason I say that is because …
“That reptile” - meaning perhaps a bad person
“what you call a son” - defining who it is (son of someone), also sounding sarcastic
“has made me appear in a sleazy publication” - so this person has done something mean
Other examples I found: “that’s what you call a son” / “Mom, is that what you call a son?”
Hope this helps
Take care, Andrea
How very kind of you, Andrea. I really appreciate your answer. I hope everything is well with you too. We must talk soon. Meanwhile, keep safe and give my regards to your husband and your daughters. 
You’re right about the bad person and the person being sarcastic. Here’s the url, have fun:
You’re very welcome. Comme d’habitute!!!
