Whassup, home skillet?

My neighbor always greets me like this and it makes me cringe.

What are expressions that make you cringe?

My mailman calls me “pumpkin.” I find it overly familiar. We only had sex a few times, and he never even took his shoe off.

Are you supposed to be in this neighborhood?

Anything that was originally written for a sitcom and then became a part of the common language. E.g. how you doin’?, did I do that?, wasssup etc. etc. (I’m sure are more modern ones, but I’m an EG, so...). 😀

OP He probably calls you that because you've got leftover breakfast skillet on your muumuu

My favorite waiter in my neighborhood diner used to call all men King.

It kind of made me feel like a German Shepherd.

I actually find Home Skillet endearing - because it’s so weird / oddball. “Homie” would be irritating - but something as weird and random as home skillet is funny.

The Fraulein daughter of my Boss always calls me “dude”, like she’s trying to be cool with the staff lesbian (presumptive, we don’t all use slang like that) and desperately to obscure the obvious fact that she’s a hopelessly stupid & dorky stroller-roller. She’s also keen on saying “-man” at the end of sentences, presumably in some sort of imitation of the deadbeat college boy who knocked her up the first time.

As a cop, it used to irritate the hell out of me when one of the older maintenance guys would say to me, "hey, good-lookin', whatcha got cookin'?" each and every time he'd see me. He never said this to anyone else. This was in the days when gay cops didn't dare to come out at work, and I had no idea if he was gay or what his problem was, or even if he perceived I was gay.

That's the thing—I couldn't tell at all. That's all he ever did. To add to the confusion, he wasn't the brightest light on the Christmas tree, so he was kind of hard to read.

My late husband used to (along other, better endearments) call me "sheep dip."

I'd remind him what "sheep dip" is, and he'd just say that he thought it sounded cute.

When you thank someone for a service and they cheerily say, “No Problem!”.

It’s alluding to that perhaps you were a problem that was averted by them and has a negative context perhaps there are more problems ahead.

According to the Urban Dictionary Homeskillet is not an enduring term.

[quote] Home Skillet is a proper noun used to describe a caucasian male from rural areas who thinks he posses the same street cred as an afro-american from the "hood". This individual may be seen wearing a wave cap and a flat billed hat. The subject may also be witnessed wearing Urban apparel, gold chains, and talking in Eubonics. This term is said to have been originated in Southwestern Kansas by Mr. J. L. Wiser whilst making fun of said individual "homeskillet". AKA: Wigger
