Some folks believe in proper manners and some don't the choice is yours.
Who judges what's proper manners here?
I've seen southerners call people mam and sir out west and up north and they looked at them like it was disrespectful as frick.
Why do you think the south has a monopoly on dictating what constitutes manners?

We get it, you think it is cool to be irreverent and likely would weart shorts and a tanktop to a church wedding, the rest of us are just glad you self ID so there is no need to wonder.

It is just after 9 AM here in Saudi Arabia and I have been addressed as sir a dozen times already.
My wife is a Brit and every single member of her family practices this.
There is good reason Southerners are condidered the favorite Americans of most outside the USA, it is because we in general are polite and respectful of others and it is a shame so many parents of gen X'ers failed so badly.
