    Unless you're my mother.. Or over the age of 70

    "Hi Petal, ah sher isn't the weather great. Have a good one hunny!".. It's even worse when the person is the same age or younger than you.

    Do these people not realise how much everyone hates them?

    Sheesh

    I hate this. It's even weirder when it comes from someone younger than me.

    I am guessing 'sugar-tits' is out of fashion now too.

    Ah good old Wexford. Every second word in a conversation in Wexford town contains the word 'Hun' but it needs to be drawn out like Hhhhhuuuuuuunnnnnnnnn! in order for you to get the full effect!!! 'Alrighhhhhtttt Hhhhhhuuuuuuuunnnnnn?' :D

    I use endearments like this all the time with friends, aquaintances and people I'm being introduced to. All have the grace to accept it as a term of endearment.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Try Nottingham in England, everyone there calls you "duck" or "ducks" ... male, female, young or old, it makes no difference.

    I think it's sweet when people refer to me in such a manner (within reason - it is a bit weird if they're strangers and the same age as me/keep saying it over and over. Me and my friends always use such terms of endearment though).

    Just be glad you don't live anywhere around the Thames Estuary or East London. If you watch EastEnders you'll know what I mean!
