Tutoyer - can it be used to be funny?

I was watching a short youtube video in which, if I understood the gist of it, a bilingual gentleman was giving students advice in how to translate. I thought I heard him address his audience repeatedly by 'tu'. I don't know if it was a tongue in cheek humour or was he being unusually familiar, The video was here:

Instead of using the following expression: Chacun(e) d'entre + Stress pronoun, can I use the following:

Chacun(e) de + Stress Pronoun ? Isn't this correct?

Don't understand this errorIl le lui a refusé ? - Oui, il ________ a refusé aussi. He denied it to him? - Yes, he denied it to us too.
I thought nous comes before il in this case but the quiz says " Oui, il *nous l*'a refusé" is wrong.

Why is "je veux" impolite, but not "voulez-vous"?

Hi,

I was wondering why "je veux" is considered impolite in most contexts, but "voulez-vous" isn't, as they're both forms of "vouloir". Is it only impolite to use the verb "vouloir" when talking about yourself? So would, for example, "il veut" or "ils veulent" be polite?

Thanks in advance!
