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.

Honestly it seems like most people have assumed that the way things are now is how they'll always be. I'm not sure why everyone seems to think this but I've noticed it everywhere with almost everyone.

There's this sense that everyone seems dug in and rooted and acting like their entire world isn't subject to change on a whim.

It's really fuckin weird.

Life gets more turbulent as you age so you just try to hold the fuck on.
