I'm pretty sure "What's your twitter handle?" should cover it.

I do. We (our generation) introduced our friends to our kids as Sam or Betty instead of Mr or Mrs whatever. I remember meeting a neighbour of ours (when I was a child) years after I'd moved out of my parents home and greeting her as Mrs Yamoka. She said, "Please call me Mary". I said I couldn't because I always knew her as Mrs. Yamoka. I guess nowadays the same is true with the "newer" generations.
I think the problem is now many children are living with just their mom.
So mom gets a boyfriend and obviously her kids are going to call him Hank or George or Dean or whatever his name is. Their friends are going to do the same and suddenly everyone is on first name terms.

'Do unto others, before they do unto you'.

The "Golden Rule" of Leviticus 19:18 was quoted by Jesus of Nazareth (Matthew 7:12 , see also Luke 6:31) and described by him as the second great commandment. The common English phrasing is "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you".
