Cute when spoken with more than one 'U' turns condescending after the first 'U' and means the opposite of pleasing and appealing. Often not meant to be sarcastic or critical, but unintentionally damning with faint praise or the disappointed response when 'great' is too much to utter.
Man: "How do you like the new carpet I picked up?"
Woman: "Cuuuuuute." (cute)
Man: "Okay. Okay. I gather that you hated it after the first 'U'."
Single Sally is a man trying to throw a party without any friends. He may frequent bars, nightclubs and gentlemen's clubs for companions to party with.
"Sorry buddy. We only book topless waitresses for parties, no single Sallies. Call us next time you have some friends over."
"That is why this place can no longer be rented for parties unless there are two men willing to be responsible. One man had a party, wrecked the place and he threw up his hands, saying he cannot control his rowdy guests. No matter how high we raised the fee, none of these single Sallys ever cared about losing their security deposit. Only when we made two men give their names for the rental did we start to see manners. One of the two men needed the security deposit more and he would keep his friends in line to get it back. It became a matter of pride, and one friend would not let his so-called friend take advantage of their friendship by losing the deposit. With two names on the line, it diffuses the responsibility and makes it easier for everyone to relax."
