Apart from text and Jejemon speak, there is nothing that annoys me more than the constant (mis)use of the honorifics “Sir” and “Master” in Filipino forums and discussion groups. You’ll see this a lot in PinoyExchange and TipidPC, but it has already spread into other tech sites that attract newbies.
This short post will explain why I think these honorifics shouldn’t be used outside an ironic and/or personal (i.e. you know the guy personally) context.
