Although...why is being addressed as "Sir" in any way mocking? Barring, of course, mocking tone inflection.

Have you ever been stopped by a receipt checker at some store who physically walked in front of your cart, restrained it, and addressed you?
The first thing they say is "SIR. I need to check your receipt. SIR. SIR!"
For the most part, though, it's the mocking tone inflection you've so indicated.I ask for something simple, in a calm tone of voice and I get !YES SIR!? How about fuck you, do what I said the first time?
