If that FUCKING GUY at Circle K calls me SWEETHEART or SUGAR or OH MY HOLY CHRIST BABY GIRL ONE MORE TIME I AM GOING TO GO OVER THE COUNTER AT HIM.

Alternately, I'll just never go to that Circle K EVER AGAIN.

yelling!

Heh, wow, yeah. I'm kind of disgusted by the first two, in ascending order, but I definitely draw the line at "baby girl." WTF, for real.

Little old ladies are allowed to call me pretty much anything they want, because it's just grandma-talk to me. Little old men can call me slightly less things, but the older they are, the less I really care, because they're set in their ways and aren't going to change.

Guys in their mid-fifties- particularly total strangers - are absolutely NOT in the "allowed to call me pet names" category. I mean, I realize this is Oklahoma, but seriously?

And "baby girl" actually squicks me pretty badly; I'd flip out if a dude I was dating called me that. It's just revolting on SO many levels.

I just shot off a cranky email to corporate headquarters. :)

OMG that baby is so SWEET.

Dude did that to me when I was getting gas the other day. "Sweetheart." I resisted the urge to snap, "I AM NOT YOUR FUCKING SWEETHEART."

PS - I DEMAND A POST WITH YOUR CRANKY EMAIL TO CORPORATE.

This guy has also pulled the "you need to smile" bullshit on me. And WHY do I need to smile, exactly?

LOL I sent it through their website and sadly do not have a copy!

Y'know, maybe if you don't like that you shouldn't come to Britain... luv.

The only one that really gets me is 'young lady'. As in 'You should have bought this ticket at the office, young lady!' These days I seem to get less of that, mind.

You know, "luv" doesn't bother me at all - it seems to be applied generally equally male to female and female to male or male.

And I am capable of more or less ignoring "sweetheart" - it is Oklahoma, after all - but
"sweets" is just right out.

"Baby girl" though, is REALLY beyond the pale. It makes my skin crawl.
