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

I love giving huge waves at random people. And have the biggest smile on my face. It gets them every time.

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!

Haha, I dunno, but that sounds pretty funny.
