"Sweetie," indeed!

Bobby: What do you mean "you don't make side orders of toast"? You make sandwiches, don't you?
Waitress: Would you like to talk to the manager?
Bobby: You've got bread. And a toaster of some kind?
Waitress: I don't make the rules.
Bobby: OK, I'll make it as easy for you as I can. I'd like an omelet, plain, and a chicken salad sandwich on wheat toast, no mayonnaise, no butter, no lettuce. And a cup of coffee.
Waitress: A number two, chicken sal san. Hold the butter, the lettuce, the mayonnaise, and a cup of coffee. Anything else?
Bobby: Yeah, now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich, and you haven't broken any rules.
Waitress(sarcastically): You want me to hold the chicken, huh?
Bobby: I want you to hold it between your knees.

2. Obama called a woman "sweetie" at a campaign stop.
It is apparently the end of civilization as we know it for him to have done so.

9. I don't have one, which should've been obvious by my post. Your use of "sweetie" is NOT
the same as OBAMA'S use of it. But you apparently can't tell the difference.

3. Some idiot has stated that Obama once called a woman supporter "sweetie"
Of course, there's no proof or links.

Just a feminist rumor so far.

5. ?
What on earth is wrong with "sweetie?" Is that supposed to be condescending to women or something?

13. I Love Sweetie
I love when a waitress calls me sweetie.... I give her a big tip. The best waitresses who keep my coffee cup filled and get me my eggs hot and call me Honey, Sweetie... I leave $5 on the table. God bless them for their hard work.

15. I agree. Just in the Tampa area and ate at a diner and the waitress was just like Flo.
The food was great, cheap, hot and the service impeccable. The waitress called me "hon" and "sweetie." She was real stereotype, and I got a big kick out of it and she got a big tip out of it.
