    Everyone’s name is either “hey you” or “you there”

      Depending on where you are it can even be “oi, cunt” or “ей, ТАПАГ”

        As an American “oi cunt” is often deemed inappropriate and abusive

          As an American who actually talks to people like that it pretty much just weeds out all overly sensitive people making my life a lot simpler.

          If I call you a cunt in a joking tone with a smile on my face and you get all puffy I’m erasing your existence in my mind.

          Yeah, I don’t know about the US, but seems like Brits use it in a sort of amicable manner.
