Sometimes I'm not quite sure whether to call an unaccompanied woman "miss" or "ma'am". If they're clearly young then it's an easy Miss, but if it's in that grey area I'll just stick with the miss because that has a better chance of being flattering. If they're clearly a bit oilder I'll load up the ma'am because they probably appreciate that respect. I guess? Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on anything

why do you have to use either? it usually doesn't add anything to sentences

I'm a lost cause guys. This girl will have me.

Pepsi is okay if it's the only thing available.

I actually prefer orange soda, but I'm willing to make exceptions

It almost never comes up. It would be if it's a stranger and I don't know their name. Like "miss, you dropped your keys"

If you work certain jobs it may come up more often, of course

Excuse me, you dropped your keys.

No need for an honourific.

Gotta admit, never been to lindy's cause I've never been to Tucson

???


i'll never understand why its required in those jobs. all it does is annoy me


(but miss would be preferably if anything)

I knew it. I already have this well sorted out. I'm always right about everything

Excuse me, you dropped your keys.

uhh because it's fucking polite? maybe they don't have that in boganville

 

[You Know Nothing]

Yeah, this.

Culturally, most West Australians have an aversion to titles.

I find it hilarious when online peeps call me "Sir".

Gotta make sure to tip your hat after handing the keys to her as well.

edit: beaten to a fucking pulp

 

[Jobbs]

Yeah, this.

I don't like referring to people as "you" or as nothing. People have names and I'd like to use them. If I don't know their name, I'll use a suitable placeholder.

 

[You Know Nothing]

AY YO THESE YO KEEEEYS?

Hey lady, you dropped your keys.

 

[FloatOn]

this artists way book is wrecking me and I only just started.

I haven't thought creatively in a long time and so I feel dormant parts of my brain waking up

 

[Professor Beef]

Miss. Miss every time. I hate getting ma'amed.

 

[You Know Nothing]

I wouldn't call some guy I didn't know sir either fwiw.

Kids today, no respect.

 

[Granadier]

Suitable in all situations.

Even if they didn't drop their keys.

 

[Misha]

I don't like referring to people as "you" or as nothing. People have names and I'd like to use them. If I don't know their name, I'll use a suitable placeholder.

but why? it doesn't add any function. its more annoying than polite. theres zero point to it.

the description mentions god. is it particularly religious?

could use some creative confidence.

I don't have a title for young guys. I would call a man clearly to my senior "sir" but that'd seem weird using it on someone my age or younger. Hmmm. Maybe I am a sexist, becaus ewomen my age or younger are definitely getting missed.

edit: more than likely a guy my age or younger is getting a "man" or something, if I think about it honestly

but why? it doesn't add any function. its more annoying than polite. theres zero point to it.

this is just mostly academic since it so rarely comes up. I did work a job that had me using it now and then at a point in the past though

When was the last time your thought creatively?

Just use "dude."

 

[marrec]

Just use "dude."

I tend to use "buddy" a lot.

"hey buddy, you dropped your wallet"

 

[Lucian Cat]

Dude, bruh, buddy, mate.
I hate being called ma'am. Miss is also weird.

 

[Granadier]

Dude, bruh, buddy, mate.

Miss, you dropped your ma'am.

 

[marrec]

Also, "Dude" has already become a gender neutral callout in the north-eastern US as proven by a study a buddy of mine did.

So really, just use dude.

 

[friskykillface]

I usually say miss since I say it at work

[FUME5]

Hey shiela, ya dropped ya bloody keys.

 

[Jobbs]

Dude, bruh, buddy, mate.
I hate being called ma'am. Miss is also weird.

but we already learned this is a thing aussies don't like.

sometimes I call women (ones I am friendly with already) "bro" and stuff. by sometimes I mean pretty frequently. even my nieces get it, haha

I tend to use "buddy" a lot.

"hey buddy, you dropped your wallet"

I always read/hear "buddy" as sarcastic or aggressive

 

[marrec]

that sounds threatening

I'm also 6'4" this may be a problem

"master" :V

we should abolish both tipping and ma'aming from jobs imo

 

[You Know Nothing]

I'm not your buddy, friend.

I'm not your friend, guy.

I'm not your guy, buddy.

 

[friskykillface]

Tall bros.

I made some guacamole. I wrapped a couple hotdogs in bacon and put them on the griddle. There's some thousand island dressing in the fridge. #closeenough

 

[You Know Nothing]

"master" :V

That's saved for a very specific context. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Jobbs]

if you think throwing out a "sir" here an dthere is annoying honorifics, if I understand iut ocrrectly Japanese language has a much more innvolved systme of honorofics, called Keigo. Someone swas telling me about it once.

There are a lot of social rules about when to use it, too, with many nuances. Like for example, if you are a woman who married a japanese man, you would never be expected to speak normally to his parents (correct me if I'm wrong though) and only use Keigo

It's close, but after this get the shit to make a proper sonoran cause you're life will change.
