Sir/Ma'am? Hon? Sweetie? Girl/Boy?
So I've seen several threads that took one part or another of this. I'm interested what people find the most offensive and, if you care to discuss it, why you are offended by any of these? Personally, I care more (which still isn't much) HOW the person calls me anything rather than what they call me. Someone can call me by my first name, and say it in nasty enough of a way that I'd much rather they had used some other term. Overall, I'm shocked by how easily people are offended these days. Especially when someone does not have the intention to offend. *shrug*
