It made me irrationally angry at cookouts when it was all they had.

I'm curious...how do people usually address someone in England, then?

[identity profile] mintbun.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, I live in Miami which is probably super casual compared to the rest of Florida, pffftt.

Yeah, it seems like the norm.

I hear it mostly on Animal cops. I'm going to South? America next year. Arizona. Do they say it there?

xD Yeah. I think most people had teh same reaction and thats why you can't get it anymore.

Uh... plain mister? At least, that's my impression since I've never been there. Classics seem to use "master", but don't think they'd say that nowadays...

[identity profile] julesie-g.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Umm. Depends on what the situation is and really what part of England you are from.

Like if you are at school you'd say Miss(Mrs) or Mister.

Thanks for scanslating!

This was actually quite accurate, except I rarely ever use sir or ma'am, but I'm a northerner and I think it's a less common form of address here.

Lol, green pancakes? Where in the world did he find those?

And museum souvenirs are expensive!

A TRUE warrior has green milk +green pancakes + Green Eggs and Ham on that day.

That's so interesting! People expect to hear ma'am or sir where I'm from (especially after church) and it is SO RUDE not too. I mean, it's like, how old people get their respect. They will just huff at you and gossip to their friends if you don't.

Beware old people gossip. BEWARE!!! They will tell fucking EVERYONE YOU KNOW and your grandma will bring it up ALL THE FUCKING TIME (at least until someone else's grandchild fucks up and then you're in the clear.)

So it's best just to be polite in the first place. Y'all.

"I'm love it" huh. *is grammar-picky* *shot*
Ame's so cute >w< why do cute things come out when I'm broke? ;-;

I'm from California and I barely ever hear sir or ma'am, even in stores ._. it's usually just a "Can I help you?" without any referral.

[identity profile] erasetheinside.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I live in the North and use sir and ma'am. Usually people are surprised, not offended, I find. But when I talk to a Southerner, they're all,like, fine with it.
I've actually met only one Canadian who said "eh". It was pretty cute actually. She ended every other sentence with it.

Sorry, Arizona's the Southwest. :)

The South is actually the American Southeast even though Texas likes to pretend it's the South

[identity profile] julesie-g.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohhh. I'll be going to the west too. California!
Oh well. Maybe some people will say it to humour a Brit tourist :D

I just feel it's necessary to represent and say: Come to the North East; we have /New/ England!

[identity profile] julesie-g.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL

New England, Where I hear they are more like the English.

I'd love to visit but my friend lives in Arizona hence why I am going there. xD

[identity profile] undone-reading.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I was thinking more like someone saying "Uh, Sir, you need to scan your card" or "You dropped this Ma'am!".

[identity profile] arachnes-web.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
You never know! ^^

Have fun on your trip and if you're going to San Francisco, you have to go to Japantown. So many things to buy there... XD

[identity profile] julesie-g.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohh!! A japantown. That sounds cool.

Is San Fran near Cali? ^^;;

[identity profile] izzyninjajedi.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
That makes sense. But then to me I keep thinking of the words Mister and Miss instead of Sir and Ma'am ._.

[identity profile] historyblitz.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never run into that. A woman you don't know is a "ma'am". You never call her anything else--at least not in any retail situation or office jobs I've worked in. And I've never ever had a woman be like, "Don't call me that" because that would be silly.

In my school we call our teachers 'sir' if male and 'miss' if female btw I live in the south

[identity profile] historyblitz.livejournal.com 2011-08-14 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Sir/maam is normal.

Also, green pancakes are awesome.
