I’ve heard it explained that “hey” used to be more of an urgent way to get someone’s attention, rather than a casual “hello” like it is now, so it sounded rude to some older folks.

    Did I ever give you the impression that I cared what a bunch of strangers think of me? You can choose to disregard all that I have said and continue to talk like a fifth grader, that will have absolutely no effect on myself or anyone I know.

    Your last sentence screams,”help, I am lonely and need attention“.
