Mind you, I was raised to be respectful of others, even if they weren't respectful of/to me.
I certainly wouldn't like knowing, or thinking our neighbours have "nick names" for us, it just seems incredibly immature and seems to have the mentality of a school bully.

That's the beauty of opinion I suppose, it can be so diverse

I just thought your reply was a tad harsh given the context in which it was delivered.
I occasionally use nick names as you call it, terms of endearment is more what I call it
in a light hearted manner with no malice or disrespect behind it, quite how this can be considered the mentality of a school bully is beyond me but each to their own I suppose.
Amazing how threads meant to be a bit of a giggle can soon turn all too serious all to quickly.
Some of us were also brought/dragged up with old fashioned values and to respect ones elders but I would not respect others that don't show me the same courtesy.
Just getting back on topic for a bit I almost forgot, Ive got Billy Bulls*** living next door (he tells a good yarn
)
