Why does everyone feel compelled to call people “boss”

[FrontoBama]

Boss and Chief are the official callsign of white and Spanish people in New York.

Order a sandwich or a slice of pizza and you definitely getting exalted.

Lowkey when I talk to white ppl on the street I say chief too

sometimes it's said ironically, pay attention

I been doing this since "The Wire".

Chris randomly calling people boss before he kills them was hilarious to me.

Random character: "Don't kill me Chris, please!"

Chris: "Don't worry boss, I got you."

always look them in the eyes (death is lonely it's the only way to comfort them on their way out) Chris was cold but humane in his own twisted way.Free DAT MAN!

Yeah I liked this character a lot. Was just a guy doing a job, as fukked up as it was.

Kinda reminds me of Mike from "Breaking Bad".

MAGA CACs use the word “hoss” and I’m ngl that shyt cracks me up and now my friends and I jokingly call each other that shyt.

The dude on prison break always said that shyt. Took me long af to understand he not saying boss.

It disarms people and makes them less likely to be combative. Helps especially with alot of motherfukkers with guns.

Honestly, I don’t even know.

I asked someone about it before, they said it came from those boomer MAGA CACs accidentally typing “Hoss” instead of “Boss” on Facebook posts but I’ve also heard it’s just southern slang in general.
