Another funny - have you ever been stuck in traffic and politely smiled at the person in the car next to you, or walked down the street and greated a perfect stranger? You get the weirdest reactions.
People look behind them to see if the smile is for somebody else,
they look at you like you are some sort of pervert
they look at you like you are a "loose" woman.
Occasionally people actually smile back.
Weird.
Are people too scared to be friendly lately or just can't be bothered?

Spent the last three weeks in New Zealand and everyone talks to you, no one seems to be in a hurry driving , never met such a laid back or friendly bunch of people. Though vacations in Tennesse and Kentucky have been the same .
Though it could be that I,m just an allround likeable guy :y114:
