What'd You Call Me?!

[Jackalb]

Dude, Guy, Mate, Bruv/Bro, Son, Boy, Guv'nor, Buddy, Dawg, Homie, etc.

All these are words that I have heard used to address each other along with many more. Do you use any of these or another or even one you coined and are known to use?

I occasionally find my self saying dude, mate and very rarely guv'nor usually without meaning to they just latch onto the end. I found myself calling people Chief a lot recently and I have no idea where I picked it up from but I don't know anyone else that uses it and its sort of become my thing.

Do you find yourself adding these to end of almost every other sentence? "What's up ______? "

 

[Hazy]

I call my friends "Brotato's" a lot.
"Broski" also comes out.

Haven't used "Dude" or "Mate" in a while, though.

 

[Aerodynamic]

Dawg and foo.

Its involuntary, I can't help it, especially when everyone I am around says them.

Don't make fun of me.

 

[Broady Brio]

Foo. And homie only when I say "Too see mah homies."

 

[dududf]

Mate, Broski, Brobot, BitchFace, Babez,...Slut, *****, whore, bud, dude......and Mudkip.

That's what I have as greetings for certain friends.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Mate, but i live in Belfast.

Its second nature.

 

[sizzle949]

I tend to call people "buddy" quite a bit, it stems from my Maritimer blood. Spend enough time in (English) New Brunswick and it just becomes a habit.

 

[Disaster Button]

I usually say mate when I'm being sarcastic or descretly insult someone.

"Wow mate you're right you really do deserve all that attention."

Or me and a couple friends will use dawg or bro iornically, I hope they realise its ironic anyway.

The only one I probably use as a greeting or means of identification is guy.

 

[HitsWithStyxx]

I often use the term "chey" or "che" (not sure of spelling, but pronounced "chay").

A lot of the locals in the Falkland Islands use it and I picked it up during the two years I lived there a while back. I don't say it as much as I used to, but I like it because no-one else says it, though they generally tend to understand what I mean.

 

[Criom]

As a girl, I can be way more affectionate with my friends even in a simply friendly way. I don't think twice about it and often end up calling people "darlin'", "hun" or "babe." Sometimes even I make myself cringe.

 

[Jackalb]

I call my friends "Brotato's" a lot.

Haha that's the best one I've heard yet.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

If I'm taking the piss I'll say brah. Otherwise I actually just say the name of the person 'm talking to.

 

[Gladion]

Bith, whore, **** for male friends. I don't call my female friends any names but I like to make fun of them a lot which made me earn a lot of smacks already.
I don't know why, but I make fun of my female friends much more than of my male friends so I think I'm trying to make up for it by not calling them bad names.

 

[Someperson307]

I used to know someone who called me "Bra".

 

[ThatsBitch3n]

When im joking around its usually derivatives of bro. Brok, broski,brotopolis, Brosef Stalin, etc. I use man, dude, or whatever comes to mind.

 

[Gigaguy64]

I call my close friends the typical Dude.
And if you know me then you know i tend to use man a lot.
As in Hey man, yo man, thanks man.

 

[Hobo Joe]

I refer to my friends by names or nick names. Strangers are 'mate' or 'lad.' Liverpool, eh?

 

[Professor M]

Now that I think about it, I actually call my friends '*****' quite often

"Y'alright, *****?"
