On another forum i noted how attractive a lady in a sfw gif was and asked her name thusly; “whom is this minx?”

The fellow who originally posted it replies with “who knows, its a GIF, bud”

The lass was immediately identified by the next poster.

Fuck you sanctimonious twat, you mother had a mouth like a combine harvester only with less discretion, and a snatch like a pile of freshly raked leaves.  
I am not now your bud, nor will I be in the future. I am not a 6 year old tee ball player (which you are probably legally barred from contacting).  
You are the moron for acting as though people in GIFs that you grab indiscriminately from your neighborhood giphy-man are full of unknowable non-entities.

You sure seem to be acting like a 6 year old, lashing out in such an extreme way over something pretty innocuous. Don’t get upset that other people don’t want to do your research for you.

It’s funny that he managed to objectify a woman while also failing to properly use “whom” as an object.

Wait, no. The other thing. Sad. It’s sad.

I’ve long contended that any innocuous comment could start a bar fight if, when addressing a stranger, you end with the word “Bub”…

So, you got a problem,_BUB?_

Son, hon, bub, tiger, pal, chief, buddy even.  
Guy, fella, padre, Jack, hoss.

None of these are the pox of BUD.

Even that troglodyte seems less condescending. That b\*\*weiser commercial has some lyrics that really do fit here. “You’ve said you know it all bla bla bla”
