Do people in your country use honorifics every time they speak to another person?
>>
>>220781728
wasn't he a kid diddler or somethin
>>
>>220781728
Yes sir I do
>>
Never
The only people who use honorifics are South or Southeast Asian immigrants
If someone not from those regions uses one I'll immediately be on guard because it's strange and disturbing
>>
>>220781790
I'm sorry to hear that, mister
>>
>>220781744
That was mj
>>
>>220781813
I've never heard anyone pronounce the word Mr irl my entire life
>>
>>220781834
Well sir it's very impolite here to speak to a man without giving him the respect a gentleman ought to another mister

We all know what he wanted from Priscilla Beaulieu, don't be coy.
>>
>>220781728
sir is really only used when you don't know a man, but need to get his attention on the street. for instance, "sir you dropped your hat" or something like that
>>
>>220782097
SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR YOU FORGOT YOUR HAT SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
>>
Not in my country, but we do in my state. It’s a laudable custom.

Honorifics is pretty rare but respective person (2nd person plural) instead of simple 2nd person singular is common. I only recently learned that this used to be the case in English too, that "you" was 2nd person plural but became such a commonplace pleasantry it completely replaced "thou"

>>220781728
Only blacks and hobos use honorifics to make white people less afraid of them when they have to interact.

I fucking love Elvis.

he met Priscilla for the first time when she was 14 and he was 24, then they started a platonic relationship and she eventually went to live with him at 17.
this would be called grooming these days, but it was pretty normal back in the '50s.

His momma thought he was a saint and that's the only female opinion any sane man should ever care about
>>
>>220782247
Same, his music is great

Jewish lies, hee-hee
