I agree.

I try to make a habit of acknowledging people that I make eye contact with. If someone's all pissed off, or is an unfriendly person, you can usually tell before the eye contact *quick glance* is long enough for both to notice it, so before a friendly acknowledgement of the other is made.
Alot of times the "unfriendlies" presents more of a challenge for me, however, which I cannot pass up. Its such a rush making grumps crack. Cuz most people want to be liked, even the biggest grump, some people just require a little more finesse than others, lol.
So, its not often I show friendliness and smile that the gesture is not returned. Who wouldn't want someone to smile at them or make a friendly comment? Even if you're a complete social retard, wouldn't you rather be acknowledged than ignored?


Great thread, btw.
Ousted Reviewed by Ousted on . the nod' the question of the Nod here is the scenerio,you are walking along and are passing people on the street. total stangers every one, some people you meet eyes with and nod too, some your speak too, some you ignore. is this not some form of basic judgement upon looks? i've thought alot about this and it seems to me in most cases one person decides to nod and the other one agree's this person is worth a nod. so they pass aknowledge eachs existance and go on.
