FOR FUCKS SAKE.
WE'RE NOT IN ALABAMA, AND I'M NOT 50YRS OLD AND WORKING/LIVING AT THE LOCAL 76 TRUCK STOP.
I'M 24 AND I DESTROY LIVES/ENABLE DRUNKS LIKE YOU. SO FROM NOW ON MISS REGEHR TO YOU.

Ma'am doesn't actually have anything to do with age.

It's a formality you use when you don't know the person. Like "sir"

Alabama? I'm pretty sure it's french too.

it's just that i never really noticed women being addressed as ma'am until i moved to florida a long time ago. i noticed as soon as we hit kentucky, on the drive down from toronto, it was common practice to address an older woman as ma'am and most women under 30 as miss.

The alternative is Missy, if you want it to be a young version.

Which is pretty much just creepy, Missy.

Oh man. I really really want to sit down for a few beer with jenai one day.

Jenai is an old dude, Courtney.
