    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.

    and this also

    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"

    I'm guilty of this too

    I don't like to be called "boy", "chief", or "homeboy"....bro doesn't bother me unless it's said in the wrong tone. I call everyone "dude" or "man" male or female....hahah.

    Usually get called "bro" in WoW... and I generally respond with "sure thing, mate". Doesn't really bother me. What irks me though, is guys whom I barely know SMS me with words like "dear", "sweetie", "honey". Ugh :noway:

    My guildies tend to call me "boss" though... and I think I like that LOL :wink:

    And you too would get the 20-minute lecture :noway: :laugh: :tongue:

    It starts with "EXCUSE MEEEE??????"
    Ends with "DO YOU UNDERSTAND????????"

    Woops, I meant using the word "dude". I do think I said it to my mom once though. She gave me this akward look & I said "that just wasn't right" & that was the end of that.

    "Chief" is the one I don't like.

    Q: What's up chief?

    Seriously, if I used any of these I'd get laughed out of town given that I live in the UK. When I first moved here I was surprised to be called "mate" or "love" :laugh: but I have had to get used to it.

    When someone calls me bro, I usually just grunt in return, or occasionally add in a knuckle bump. Happens to me a lot.

    Bro is better than "Big Guy"...especially when you're 5'9". Thankfully I haven't heard that one in a little while.
