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.

Fr fr that hot take be so skibidi you real g are goated with the sauce no cap
This but unironically /s
No seriously, I have no clue what you were talking about but it's very normal for any social group to develop a unique way of language that you have to learn when you want to engage. It's not as if farmers wouldn't use terms lay people don't understand
Everything I said is actually kinda sensible and as a sentence made sense. Obviously it uses too much slang at once and no one would make a sentence purely made of slang like that, but theoretically it's a valid sentence with modern slang.
I'm old as hell. I solely learned this just to mess with the young ones lmao.
