Normally I look at my the floor, rather than at other people. Take the odd glance up to make sure there are no impending lampposts though.

Headup, chest out, eye contact.

Anyone who looks at me I throw into the road.

hehe. that's twice in 10 minutes i've lolled at something on here!

depends where i am. if i'm in evesham, it's head-down-please-don't-recognise-me-or-ask-me-for-change...anywhere else i tend to look around quite a lot.

i also have the WORST habit ever...i look at people in cars driving towards me...it's so bad if you make eye contact because you can never justify (to yourself) the reason you were looking at them. i get told off for doing this a lot.

Normally a smile and a raise of the eyebrows. Add a bit of cheekiness if it's a nice woman.

just look at everyone like this and you might star in a few crappy films, with that dude from american pie be a fad for about 6 months and then vanish of the face of the earth.

Leeching images is bad mmm'kay?

PFG · 11 May 2006 at 12:47

im ok

if during the day u happen to encounter me, i will be wearing sunglasses/drivers lense

the reason is,is due to me being highly sensitive to bright light( like gizmo )

so i can look as i please

and if it is in the evening and i am indorrs near a fluorescent light i put them on)

MJ · 11 May 2006 at 12:47

happy now

I experimented a while back and smiled at everyone I passed. I'd say about half smile back, and most of those are women. Thus, I now increase my strike rate by only smiling at women.

does anyone find doing this kinda weird?

where do you put your eyes? do you make eye contact (bit odd as well)

what if its a really gorgeous woman.. do you let your gaze wander on her face or make a concious effort to stare at something else like the floor

I try to make eye to eye contact and if they respond I give a little smile.
Yeah, I'm weird.

alexakasloth · 9 Jun 2006 at 19:00

Yea, what's with all these thread revivals recently!

I have three modes:

1) Hungover barely aware that I am transporting myself on my bipeds mode.

2) Grinning like a complete goon and eyes rolling around like dice mode.

3) Smirking and looking at norks mode.

malfunkshun · 9 Jun 2006 at 19:03

Eye contact, smile, say good morning/afternoon whatever. Unless its kids, in which case if they say nothing, neither do I
