I saw a relic get called on it the other day.

Some asshole sitting at a table next to mine at lunch was looking for his waitress and yelled across the patio, "Hon? Could you come over here?" For the rest of the meal the four other people at his table berated him for the use of the word "hon." He tried to "aw shucks" away, and then he tried a very half assed apology to the waitress ("My wife says I offended you when I called you 'hon' before, and I should offer an apology.") But the rest of the table wouldn't let up on him, and despite his protests that his father and grandfather have been calling waitresses "hun" for years and it's something that you say down south, I think that it sunk in that it's not an acceptible term to someone you don't know.
What if the person is Magyar?
