"Like a boss" vs "Like a sir"

Popular Phrases.

There is a commonly uttered phrase floating around the interwebz and now reality, that denotes fantastic achievement for oneself. I speak, of course, of the well-known phrase "Like a boss". If you have any doubt about how popular this phrase is, go to Google right now and start typing in "Like". What's the first auto-complete result? Why, it's "Like a boss"!

This phrase, highly popularized through that one Lonely Island song featuring Seth Rogen that shares the same title, is everywhere. You could say it's everywhere...like a boss.


But what about "Like a sir"?

This phrase is much less common, but is almost as awesome if not as awesome as "Like a boss". You see, using this phrase denotes incredible feats but with more modesty than the righteously outrageous "Like a boss" phrase.

Here is the usual picture that represents "Like a sir".

Yes, quite.

So why do fewer people utilize this phrase of greatness? "Like a sir" seems very desirable to be associated with; 'sir' usually implies gentlemanly or noble behavior, yet the phrase may almost always be used in the same context as "Like a boss" without rubbing it in someone's face as much. My guess would be that it is not as widespread and generally applicable as "Like a boss" is, especially since it aligns with males (aside from boot camp, where's the last place you heard a lady being addressed as 'sir'?).

Why is such awesomeness not used more often? :(
