I'm not trying to be a pecker head, but this is a serious question. Why do you want that little siht box so much?
It reminds me of a guy on another forum I'm on that thinks his Miata and his Honda Fit are the baddest ****ers on earth. I think he forgets to mention that his conclusion is based on what it can do in a small parking lot in front of a grocery store.

Just curious if kids in other parts of the country are taught like they are here. Down here everything is yes sir, no ma'am, etc. And if they are addressing an adult its Mr. or Miss. If mine or my nephews wanted to tell you something they would preface it with "Mr Gary", "Mr. Scott", "Mr. Paul", "Miss Jill", "Miss Stefanny", etc.
I have noticed the tradition starting to go away among kids of younger parents though. Kind of sad to me, but I guess people would consider it progressing and the times changing.

Thank you, please, excuse me, sorry, all used
Sir and ma'am used but rarely
Mr. or Mrs and a first name are incorrect and would be corrected immediately, but I've never heard it phrased like that, ever.

I was taught to say all that, but have noticed they are not used as much by kids these days.

It's just not how I was raised. I don't know anyone around here who has. It's just a different culture. There are ways to be respectful without using such titles.
