these words are starting to make me uncomfortable. generally, anyone who calls me "buddy" isn't my buddy, and anyone who uses "nice" in response to something i've said usually doesn't mean it. it's just a stock response. so i'm gonna try to cut these two words out in hopes that those that converse with me do the same.

exceptions:

when referring to buddence t. lembeck of "charles in charge" fame, 'buddy' is still the preferred nickname.

grandmas and other old people can still use 'nice' however they want. but they don't really use it in the annoying way anyway.
