Caring about this seems like something you’d have to work shifts at a plant or construction site to understand.

I called a “buddy” of mine Champ the other day and he got mildly Annoyed.

Is what it is…

I just can’t imagine walking around life looking to be offended. It’s gotta be the sign of a supremely insecure person. Call me whatever you want, I don’t really care

Mich Ultra. Bartender kind of smirked and said "Sure thing, buddy." My friend got heated and said to not call him that. I asked why and he said he hates getting called bud or buddy by another grown man because it feels condescending and emasculating.


Ordering a Ultra is emasculating

Would not take offense but why would the bartender smirk?

I call guys I don’t know “chief” all the time. No one cares.

Podnuh or brother if we are friends
Pretty boy if we know each other well enough
Dude if I don’t like a guy
Bitch if it’s time to fight
Boss man if I’m fricking with you

Your bud drinks Michelob Ultra. He’s emasculating himself enough.

This one I truly don't understand. Saw an older black guy lose his shite at a sportsbook when one of the cashiers call him "boss".

Again, why is this issue for so many dudes?

How does "bud/buddy" get a pass and not "boss" ? Truly don't understand it

Stuff like that doesn't bother me at all. There's a lot worse to be called and even then it doesn't matter, if you're a grown man.
