At the risk of confirming that I'm as big a dick as people think, didn't your mother teach you any manners? Seriously.
When I first read this, I thought you were going to ask questions about martinis and the opera and how to tie a bowtie.
What you're really asking is how to behave in polite company. Brother, if you don't have an idea of how to do that now, you're most likely a lost cause. I don't recall your life's story off the top of my head, but I don't recall any parental abandonment issues in your past. Forgive me if I've forgotten them.
The fact that you're (in my mind at least) thought of as a pretty good guy with friends and the ability to communicate leads me to believe that you already know what to do and how to act. Want to act classy? Don't do stupid shit and don't offend anyone. Think before you speak. Do things that require thought and intelligence. Read some old books. Learn why "O Brother Where Art Thou?" is hilarious in comparison to "The Odessy".
And have some fucking self-confidence. Surely your parents taught you that too.
