As it's gotten a bit warmer I can venture out more and more without a winter hat (the winter wind in NYC is brutal!).
I've found myself making eye contact and sharing a kind of "nod" or "thumbs up" with a good number of sly guys or sly/closely cut women. It's like a secret language!
Always nice to get positive feedback, even from total strangers passing on the street.
I think you're right with your "secret language" comment. Or maybe a secret handshake. It's kinda like we know something that no one else is aware of.
I get the odd nod from some bald guys every now and again.
Reminds me of riding a motorbike, when you pass another rider you give them a nod.
I shared the bald nod with several sly guys yesterday while out shopping at Lowes.
The bald is great....in the summer I've gotten a few points to the noggin with "don't forget the sunscreen". It's great how we acknowledge each other.
It's fun when that happens. It's a nice affirmation.
I was in line at the store with 4 other guys with shaved heads. I looked at all of them and said, "I think we have them out numbered." It got a good laugh from most everyone that heard it except the cashier lady behind me that looked a little worried.
Awesome guys. I think that I will try that approach myself.
