it's different. "guy" is very dicey. it can go both ways, and you run the risk of sounding like a cracker when you use it. example: Quote:
the implied disdain that comes with "chief" is subtle enough that uneducated ears often don't know that they just got dissed. |

I find someone younger calling me kiddo more offensive than some geezer. Like I want to smack that little uppity prick, etc.

If someone called me kiddo, I would wonder if they had vision issues preventing them from seeing the grey in my hair. |

I had an old boss who would call you "Harvey" or "Harv" if he didn't know what your name was.

I've pretty much said all of this before, but in case you missed it: see alsos: sport / champ - most often used against children. denotes immaturity. buddy / pal - says "yr not my friend, asshole" (but in a nicer way). ace / professor - implies lack of skill and/or intelligence. using "genius" is too much though. the goal is to be subtle. mastering the art of the stealth-dis is a lifelong journey. CHIEF is the perfect catch-all. the implication is that they aren't the chief of anything. |

"let's go, chief," old floatingslowly said. then he gave me a big shove with his crumby hand. i damn near fell over on my can - he was a huge sonuvabitch. the next thing i knew, he and old pbradley were both in the room. they acted like they owned the damn place. old pbradley sat down on the window sill. old floatingslowly sat down in the big chair and loosened his collar and all - he was wearing this elevator operator's uniform. boy, was i nervous.
"all right, chief, let's have it. i gotta get back to work." "i already gave pbradley the five bucks -" "cut the the crap, now. let's have it. "why should i give her another five bucks?" i said. my voice was cracking all over the place. "you're trying to chisel me."
