I'm not responding any further. Honest Man apparently has no problem with me going to the L&H convention so I'll settle for that. No doubt he does things that wouldn't be to my taste (not saying they're wrong in any way) but there's no point in getting into that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. You've got very strict rules. He can feel free to call whatever he wants childish, but can’t then get all offended when someone calls him out on it like he’s done here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Calling people "mate". In my work people call each other "mate" all the time and it's kind of passive aggressive and annoying. You get two sided conversations where they call each other "mate" every time and it's obvious that they are both raging. Mate mate mate mate mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 People are doing it right now in the my work's chat page. "Mate, why haven't you let people know about that?" "Well, mate, there's not been any updates on that since the last update so I thought I'd wait until later to send something out" "To be honest, mate, we need more regular updates mate" "Mate, I've got a call at 3, mate, and I'll send, mate, an email after, mate, then. Mate" Both clearly raging at each other and yet try to deflect this by saying "mate". Personally I use the term "comrade" or "brother" when addressing my colleagues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier on today I watched old footage of police interviewing Martyn Bryant, the guy who carried out the mass shooting in Tasmania in 1996, and they were constantly referring to him as "mate". Quite a strange choice of person to befriend I thought, although in his defence he does strike you as a really nice guy, always laughing and joking - even his lawyer said he hated himself for not being able to dislike him. I believe he may have had a few issues underneath the smiley exterior though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 A work colleague of mine used to call me "mate" when the boss was around. When the boss wasn't around the term used was "cnut". But I gave as good as I got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We demand meltdowns, dotting wars and requirements for mothers as chaperones, not this unseemly apologising and forgiving. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
