| It's already been broughten! |
When I used to cross the street at a stop sign crosswalk, where I clearly had the right of way, I wouldn't give a thank-you wave because I adhered to the Chris Rock school of thought in which we shouldn't be rewarding people for doing what they're supposed to do. (If you don't get this reference, watch Chris Rock's first stand-up special, Bring the Pain; if you don't enjoy said special, shoot yourself in the face.)
But you know what? My expectations of people have become so low, because they so infrequently do what they're supposed to, that I now wave when I cross at a crosswalk. Fuck it. Give the guy a cookie. Maybe he'll be encouraged to do the right thing again the next time. (Unlikely.)
