I have travelled a lot in my cart and for the 5 weeks or so and there is this 1 PERSON that keeps waving at me. I don't know him but he looks like an nice guy. I am not sure what to do. Do you think he might be flirting with me? :D

My wife has even noticed this. She says I am silly but a wave is almost like a commitment.

Do you think I am just meeting an EXTRA FRIENDLY person? He doesn't look unhappy.

Thanks for listening.

Does he have a strange-looking animal log on his cart? Wave back already!

Do NOT under any circumstance smile or wave or Make eye contact. Wreck your car(t) if necessary.

I do a "look away" wave. As I start waving I turn my head so I never know if it was welcomed or rebuffed. This is an advanced skill that requires doing two things at once and not recommended for new villagers unless you are also from NJ. NJ villagers can also substitute a "head high". We learn that one before we can talk.

One person is frustrated by being waved at, another because no one waves back at them. LOL. ... guess that "nuff said" from me.

How about there was nothing serious about this thread? I took it as a play on another thread about unfriendly no waving villagers.

Uh, I don't think to wave or not to wave should be so frustrating....

I'm frustrated too. Sometimes I wave too soon. I hate when I do that. I prefer the "payback wave" after the initial "how dee doo".

Thanks folks for all the helpful support. :thumbup:

I may have waited too long to start this parody post.

My inspiration (https://www.talkofthevillages.com/forums/villages-florida-general-discussion-73/no-one-happy-156714/) has already grown to 65+ posts.

Just trying to bring some additional humor to an interesting topic.

I did receive a wave a last week (on the way to Redfish Run) from someone I did not recognize. I hope it was kcrazorbackfan! And I think waved back. :D

Hey we are old and you look kinda, sorta familiar. I always give a hearty wave to anyone that looks even remotely familiar. Wave back each and every time enthusiastically. Sounds like a friend waiting to happen.

BE careful, if you wave it becomes a moving target.

You are right. Bro v. Wave, 410 U.S. 119 (1969) is a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court on the issue of unsolicited waving.

Occasionally, here in NY, when I wave at someone, they wave back but they don't use all their fingers. If you choose to wave, make sure you use all your fingers!:wave:

if you are not fully committed to waving with your entire hand of 5 fingers, you can be be 20% committed with just one finger. this action most likely will do away with any further need to acknowledge this person.
Hey your in "the friendliest home town" go with it!

To wave, or not to wave, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the waves and head nods of friendly people or to wave arms back and risk having to meet fellow Villagers.
