    In certain circumstances, sir is the only appropriate response. ;)

    I think the sentiment of this thread is based around an appreciation of the absurd and an understanding of well-placed sarcasm. And I think that's a necessary (but far too uncommon) set up for levity, laughter and loosening of undergarments.

    Whenever a stranger who doesn't know my name or preferences, goes out of their way and tries to be courteous to me, I'm sure to punch them in the face. I mean how dare they?! This world sucks and people trying to be all NICE and POLITE just make it worse. :angry:

    I do not like to be called Sir. I realize that it's intended to be respectful but I like to complain when people respect me. I'm only 29 years old, I don't need to be respected or be called terms out of respect. You can call me "yo" or "wassup fat daddio"

    Any other men feel the same way?

    yes sir. I certainly do sir.

    I hate being called Sir or Mister....especially since I'm female. :grumble:

    It happens from behind more than I'd like.

    I am not bothered by it...but I hate when you call someone sir, and they yell at you for calling them that but they are always saying sir back to you!!

    sometimes it makes me feel old, like I want to turn around and see if my father is in the room or something, but most of the time it doesn't even register LOL \m/

    I don't like mister but I don't mind Sir, at least when I'm working.

    I was never knighted by the Queen so I guess I don't even deserve to be called Sir. Old Man is generally the term I get.

    Ha! Yesterday I was called "Miss" by a guy young enough to be my son. :blushing:

    My inner-Drill-Sargeant thinks it is not only a good idea that you do, but you'll drop and give me 20 if you don't.

    "Mister" bugs me. Sir? Sometimes it's perfectly appropriate and expected.
