Usually you say it to someone who is younger than you.
|
|
|
or if you jocking !! like to say " hey kids " !
|
|
|
It's usually to someone younger, but, if addressed to someone older, it's a pejorative.
|
|
then the younger one who called me kid was being pejorative to me??????????????????????????????/
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA GO SEE HIM AGAIN AND KICK HIS ASS.......
|
|
He could have meant it like "Here's lookin' at you, kid"
where it is not a literal reference to age or status--it's friendly endearment
|

That usage is used with extreme rarity, though; usually in reference to Casablanca.
