Just call everyone, 'Comrade'. Sorted.
Tell him he's fired.The man in my local petrol station appears to be under the misapprehension that i'm his boss.
Every time i go in he says "hi boss"
In my first week in Sheffield,boarding a bus to ride around and get my bearings, a tattooed muscular bus driver called me "love".As I was used to "marra" or "chore" it was something of a surprise!It was simply his way,and ,by sitting next to the cab<I gained a lot of local info and got my Sheffield geography sorted.But,by now being ahead of the game ,it was funny to see the looks on other students faces in the days to come.The fruit and veg man at our local market used to call me 'love'! I found it strangely disturbing ... Apparently, it is a Leeds thing.
I am not keen on 'pal', 'mate', 'buddy', or 'brother' either.
The last time my sister called me 'brother', I didn't speak to her for a week!
The answer to"Have a great day" is,I gather,"Thank You,but I have other plans".For some reason,I think that ought to be attributed to Michael Bentine,but it may well have been Alan Coren....and whatever happened to here's you change sir thank you, "there ya go" doesn't cut it for me and if this is followed by "have a grreat day" I need to be restrained.
Well that's just, like, your opinion man.Listen buddy...at least he didn't call you dude.
Well that's just, like, your opinion man.
Haha. Close t'thread dude.Well that's just, like, your opinion man.
