My moniker, "Greatest Lover of All Time," has become tiresome. I get it, ladies, I'm a god. But I'm also modest, so just keep it "Greatest Lover."

Me neither, it reminds me of the pig. Babe is one of my favorite childhood movies, but I still don't want my nickname to be after a pig (no matter how cute he is).Originally Posted by PoeticPassions
Yep, that's a puzzling one.

Your father is quite a character... at dishing out nicknames, that is
Whenever I've been called a "dude" I've strongly resented it. I feel it's among the ugliest English words and not because of the letters it's made of. It's just the way it sounds. It sounds so stupid, tasteless and maybe impolite to some extent... and all these trendy people uttering "dude" all the time as though it fitted their mouth machine guns like a charmI had to point out I hate the word
I guess I feel there is a subtle difference in the use of endearments between friends and family as opposed to the use of them between strangers. If a guy in a pub called me darlin, baby or any of those terms, I would find it insulting whereas someone I love using those terms would be construed differently, if that makes sense.

I still like my name most.
Seriously, I'm still fighting this battle with two coworkers. I think I've found a solution though. When a coworker calls me baby I answer back with "cupcake". That usually throws the guy off a little.

Is "cupcake" often perceived as an offense? I was once called a "cupcake", and after reacting rather violently I realized it had been said as a word of endearment. I shouldn't have reacted without being completely sure of the word's connotation, as I must have made the friend feel badSo what's a "cupcake" in the place where you live when applied to a person?

Cupcake is a term of endearment. I use it because it evokes the same response in guys that "baby" evokes in women. To me being called "baby" makes it seem like I'm not on the same level as the person calling me baby, like they have to watch over me.

I get it. Thanks papaya
Yeah, I got that all the time when I was a waitress. "Hey baby, bring me over an MGD." Okay, sure, then I can wedge the bottle down your throat. A-hole.

You can't actually prevent a drooler from drooling over a beautiful woman. They just can't hold it. As a contrast, wedging a bottle down the a-hole's throat seems a more attainable goal
Oh, dude, tell me about it!

sweet cheeks- precious and I really hate when you walk in walmart and hear "damn babbbbbby yo b finnnnne" Im not sure rather It is so revolting because of their pathetic language skills, social skills, or the fact that when I think of fine, or hot I think of meat. IE thats a fine cut of meat, or I want it hot and juciy. Food words do not make good pet names. I really can not stand to be called angel though. It brings out the most non angelic part of me- my temper...

Hmm.. food related names. a whole new can of weiners.
My mother used to call me "sausage" and don't the French call a woman "Mon petite chou" or My little cabbage.
