 Strangers who wave when you drive past them. . .

It's like a game sometimes, to see who can throw up their two-finger-salutation at the last possible moment.
People here wave a lot, especially out in the country. As I was driving home from work today I was smoking a bowl and as I passed several country folk, they waved, it's weird. Never experienced that elsewhere.

Haha I wave to strangers all the time. Usually if they look sad. I think it is more a country thing than a city thing though.

We do that shit all the time, but reverse I guess, we wave from the car. I don't know why it's so fun.
Strange but true observation: Black people almost always wave back. White people not so much.

Its happening all around where I'm from
I think its weird
But then I think of it as a way the common human communicates to one another without using our voice
it's like hey I see you ! see me ? !

I just meant we wave as we pass in cars, it's not like I wave at people I pass on the street. I usually give someone a polite nod at most in that case, if anything.

something i do that always puts a smile on peoples faces is moon the shit out of every car
--------------------
Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing
Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect, nor do I strive to be
I am alive in this world of face-first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard for the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race or color
A hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers and letting them fall apart
To a new rhythm, just to feel better

Oh, man. Everybody out in the country here does that. Sometimes they're driving their bigass pickup truck and they're over into my lane and give the two fingered wave and I'm like "fuck motherfucker just fucking drive right and keep your damn hands on the wheel!
Geez!

my friend used to do this thing were he'd honk the horn at some random people and wave the other way were there wasn't anyone around which i kinda found pointless cause you don't see their reaction but i guess kinda funny in thought
Haha, I dunno, but that sounds pretty funny.

Around here we just honk the horn, and announce what ever the person is doing, wearing, or really anything noticeable in a high pitched voice. Shit like Jogger of bearded. Those are some good times.

I used to have a jeep with no top. Everyone who has a jeep knows the jeep wave .
For some reason everyone in a jeep will wave to each other. Its cool as hell though.
Except when I got my new car and still had a habit of waving.. d'oh

I wish I had a brand-new car
So far, I got this hatchback
And everywhere I go, yo I gets laughed at

I love interacting with strangers. It really makes me have hope for this world. Their not always nice back though. So a nice finger should do the trick.

I do it to anyone I make eye contact with. Wether it's the head nod, the good afternoon, hey there, or what ever comes to mind, I always do one of them when I make eye contact with a person.
