    Must be regional or something else because I’ve never heard “old man” used in any other context than as a father. I’ve lived in Florida and the west coast and traveled all over the US for context.

    “The ‘ol’ ball and chain” is used for spouse, unfortunately it’s usually used for women.

          At that age you should have heard it at least once in your life. Dunno maybe the 20 year difference between us is enough to prevent that kind of exposure
