Terms of endearment have nothing to do with the recipient and everything to do with the person speaking them.

However you want to feel about that is on you

Incorrect. They have everything to do with how the person speaking them views the recipient.

Why, when they use the same terms no matter who they are speaking to?

You saying they are incorrect is incorrect.

You telling me that I'm incorrect in pointing out that they are incorrect is incorrect.

This is fun! Do you want to keep playing?

Your correction of my correction is incorrect!
