    Guy
    They are all shitty. But the winner is Guy for me and it isn’t even close. Calling someone guy was big thing like in the 90’s and possibly to this day and to me it was a big fuck you by whomever said it.

    Like, “hey Guy”. Or “what’s going on guy.” One of my biggest pet peeves ever. It was a bigger pet peeve when the person calling you guy knew your name!

    My friends and I would talk about how we all hated it and we always prepared ourselves with a comeback with a few of the options above. Sport. Champ. Pal. Chief. Boss. Captain. Skipper. Mixed all those in when we were called guy.

    My son says the "bruh" variant once every .81 seconds.

    Buddy (or bud)

    If you’re younger then I am DO NOT call me Bud. It will come to blows. Even if you are older than I am you better be someone I’m related to or have deep love and affection towards.


    Thin Lizzy had a few excellent albums, Bud, but I think you overstate their greatness.
    Nice try. I found out the other day you’re older than me. I respect you here. Sounds like you found a loophole Boss.

    None of these offend me, boss.

    I am not a pussy.

    Real talk none of these terms bother me in and of themselves. With a certain inflection or tone most of them can be annoying but I try not to expend too much energy worrying about what people call me. I save my angst for "bet" "sus" "bussin" and "send me".

    If you'd call someone "guy" while walking the hallways of Woodinville High School in 1987, you'd likely have your ass handed to you.

    I probably wouldn’t appreciate being called any of these except “boss”, but even that doesn’t completely sit right.

    The preferred way to address me is “yes, mistress.”

    Notice that I left off "Mister". Fuck that.

    ISWYDT for Derek.

    “Mister” is pretty lame. You better be a kid in a 1950s sitcom if you’re gonna be throwing that term around…and it probably should have a lead in of “golly” or “geez”.
