Names... what happened to our society where...
... referring to others by name has seemingly become a thing of the past?
Having grown up in the 60's and 70's, referring to others by name was a given. Mr. so and so, Mrs. so and so, Aunt so and so, Uncle so and so, friends names.
I loathe how nonchalant people have become today where "hey", "yo", "hi", or a grunt has come to serve as a way of greeting and acknowledging others. IMO it lacks respect and maturity.
Anyone else notice the trend?
