Nitpicking: Phonetically, "Ser" and "sir" aren't any different!
Edit: There's also no functional difference in the terminology.

"Navarre"/"never" puns. Even though his player makes them, too.

"Why are you engaged to a Miqo'te?"
"Okay, but why him? He doesn't seem like your type."
"You should date me instead."
"pleasesleepwithme"
"Your brother is stupid."
"You don't have to bear every burden alone, Faye! We're here for you!"
"I'm looking for the leader of this company. ...oh. It's you?"
"Matriarch! So-and-so did something wrong!"
In summary, Faye is tired of people in general.

It is a bit of a nitpick on my part I will admit. Its just that the in game phonetics seem to show npcs refering to knights and the like as "ser" and military members of the gcs as "sir", with a similar separation as found in GOT. Also to my dutch ear they sound different "sir" sounds like "sur" in english and "ser" sounds like "s-air". Sort of some lore in game I noticed and took into accout. I dont expect anyone to notice it as both sound rhe same to americans and are pronounced the same. Not sure if they do to an english ear/tongue.

"You should get out of your room more often."
"... for someone holed up in their room all day..."
etc.
Xavarian just hates this. Because
1) it implies people think he is in his workroom all day, squandering time, life in general, and not going out to see the world, when in fact he most certainly is out and about frequently, (just not when most people are awake,) and
2) it implies that they have any say about what he should or shouldn't be doing. Which, no. He does what he wants, you aren't his real dad. He will fight you with his pouting, nerdery, and accidental immolations, you can't tell him what to do.
Even better was that every single time someone has said this to him he was never in his room. The lack of common sense baffles him.
Xavarian's also real sick of loud noises of all kinds, but that probably won't be going away.

C'sien:
"So.... you come from a traditional harem..."
"Did you love your Nunh?"
"Did you have relationships with the other females in it?"
...and other probing questions. She's quite shy. Also most embarrassing things in that vein are not well taken.

Someone: You're really short.
Sounsyy: Yip...

Sounsyy: Yer point?
Someone: Little girl.../Young lady.../Youngin...
Sounsyy: Yer how old...? 21? Yeh, I'm over a decade yer senior. Sit down.
Someone: I don't think that Miqo'te lass has it in her to beat so-n-so.
Sounsyy: /shield bashes some poor soul's face in.
Someone: <Insert something to the effect of: "You're really pretty. Do you wanna get a-">

To Mahana:
"You can't boss me around, who do you think you are?"
"I'll punt you, little runt." (Actually this one, makes me really.. really.. really mad OOC. Like, in 1.0 we've seen lalafells THROW hyurian adventurers around.)
"Not all brass blades are corrupt"
"You can't buy friends."
"You're such a brat. Kid."Â
M: "I'm 37, excuse me?"
"You look like a child"
M: "And you look like a xenophobic idiot. point?"

Excessive use of the words little, small, wee, etc. Yeah, Jajara is a lalafell, and she's surrounded by tall freaks. She gets it. Eorzea is a weird place.
On Delial's side, it's mostly arguments contrary to whatever advice she might have the heart to dispense for that day. Also, "You should stop drinking."
EDIT: Also, "Maybe you should take care of that eye! I know a guy if you ever change your mind..."
