    Back when I was a young fella, there was an older guy at work who called me "young fella." I liked that until I figured out he didn't know anybody's name and called all the guys "young fella."

    I work with teenagers so Bro gets thrown my way quite a bit. They get one reminder that "Bro" is not listed on my drivers' license and the next time there are consequences.

    Also, chief, Ace, slick, dude and dog are not ok as substiutes.

    Do you get annoyed? Also do you find yourself saying hi politely to the older guys and then "what's up" to the younger ones?
    Yuo mad bro. I see it as a sign of respect. Trust me they can call you a b*****.

    I only drop bro on my close friends. I got to admit, I don't like it at all when someone says bro to me and they don't even know my name.

    Sadly, i'm an ex tumblr addict. So "bro" kinda stuck with me. I say it to all by guy friends. Even my girl friends sometimes. I might have even said it to my mom :tongue:

    My 11-year old daughter has this thing with calling me "dude". It is getting better because she is tired of the 20-minute long lectures about calling me "dude" and not "mom"
