Women Hate It When You Call Them Things Like "Darling" And "Babe" Around The Office

If you've got a female co-worker and you call her "babe" or "honey" or "cutie" . . . apparently, SHE doesn't think it's as kind and endearing as you do. According to a new survey of 3,000 female office workers in England, almost THREE out of FOUR think that pet names in the office are, quote, "unacceptable." One out of four say that pet names make them ANGRY, and another one out of four say pet names are UNPROFESSIONAL. The survey was conducted by a market research site called OnePoll. They say, quote, "Guys may think they are being affectionate by calling someone 'babe' or 'love', but it seems women simply find them patronizing and demeaning.

A man is banned From The Grocery Store For Telling The Deli Woman He Likes "Large Breasts" . . . Of Chicken

If you worked at a place that dealt with chicken, it seems like you'd get used to all the stupid sex puns: Breasts, thighs, legs, cock-a-doodle-doo . . . you get the picture.

Anyway, earlier this month, 61-year-old Al Stults of Lakewood, Colorado, was at a Safeway grocery store, ordering some chicken at the deli counter. He says that the woman behind the counter was a, quote, "heavy-set woman." She asked him what kind of chicken he wanted. Al pointed at the chicken breasts and said "I like the large ones." Then he says the woman laughed. A week later, Al was back at the Safeway deli counter. He saw the same deli clerk working, but when she saw him she walked away.

o Guys Are More Likely To Pick-Up Hitchhikers If They Have Large Breasts

In this day and age, we're pretty wary of hitchhikers. As far as society is concerned, the only reason to hitchhike is if you're an ax murderer on the run. So no one picks them up. But like a lot of things, if you've got a SWEET RACK, it's a different story. According to a study out of France, men are more likely to give a hitchhiker a ride if she's a LARGE-BREASTED WOMAN. For the study, they had an average-looking woman hitchhike on the side of the road.
