Who among you would approve of someone ALWAYS saying "My friend" to you?

[LiberalFighter]

[graywarrior]

1. God, it's just so old at this point.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. I don't know anybody who does that,

but if I did I'd have to punch them in the neck.

[The Wielding Truth]

3. He's driving me crazy.My Friend!

[Raschel]

4. It's a condescending term. n/t

[Starlight]

9. ITA. It's like those men who call every woman "honey" or "sweetie."

[undeterred]

5. I want to pinch his tumor cheek with a wrench every time he says it.

[Raschel]

12. Why am I laughing at that?! Haha.

[undeterred]

15. Because you want to do it too, and you know it would hurt.

But maybe he would STOP SAYING IT!

[LiberalFighter]

16. Needle nose pliers or vice grips would work better.

[undeterred]

18. Now we're talking.

:evilgrin:

[Cha]

6. I'd say he was boring the

shit outta me.

[krkaufman]

I'd be as creeped-out or annoyed as someone winking at me continually. n/t

[KathieG]

7. it's sooooo fake

[LynneSin]

8. I feel it's condescending to everyone

But then again that is the life of time of John McCain

[texpatriot2004]

11. I agree. nm

[Raschel]

13. It is. Condescending to EVERYONE.

[AzNick]

10. Simple choice: 4 years of "my friends" or 4 years of Obama

What a sorry ass idea of a gimmick.

I think people will not vote for him so that they don't hear "my friends" for 4 frigging years.

[az chela]

14. PHONY PHONY PHONY MY FRIEND

[GOTV]

17. I might, if it sounded sincere and not canned

[seabeyond]

19. very annoying. walk in to try to watch with husband. sat down. heard my friend twice in 30 sec

got up, told hubby sorry, cant watch.

[cjsmom44]

20. RE: Creepy

When McCain walks around saying my Friends...it really weirds me out...

[Bubbha Jo]

21. My friends call me on my birthday and send Xmas cards...

I'm still waiting on them from McCain. I hate hearing him say that.

[spinbaby]

22. He so reminds me of Mr. Burns

I can't watch the Simpsons now without thinking of McCain. He's ruined a perfectly good TV show for me.

[kick-ass-bob]

23. I got so wasted last night

playing that drinking game.:silly:

[Morning Dew]

24. I do have a friend like that.

He's a really great Somali gentleman. He almost always greets me with "Kathy, my friend, so good to see you."

He's completely sincere and I do like it.

McCranky is insincere and I don't like it.

[Hepburn]

25. I want to bitch slap the old asshole each and every time he says that! n/t

[treestar]

26. I would have been OK with it

Before I became familiar with McCrypt's use of it. Now, I'd kill anyone who said that!

[Shine]

27. That shit drives me crazy. It's so completely inauthentic.

:puke:

It also strikes me as incredibly manipulative.

[NotThisTime]

28. I wouldn't have a friend who did that, I'd smack him upside the head too often
