At home, specifically in our rec room.

That is perfectly fine, Fash. I did that for years also.

I conducted an experiment in my city one day and these are my observations.



When you smile at people you encounter while you are out and about, they either:



1. are taken by surprise that you are smiling at them and are uncertain whether to smile back or not

2. smile back also

3. do not smile back



In my observation, the numbers are pretty even between those who smiled back and those who had no reaction.



When I was younger, people would acknowledged each other with a smile or a nod. Today, people can be up close to each other like in a packed train or

walking on the street and most people avoid eye contact. Could this be a sign of a growing trend? Are we more comfortable in ignoring our fellowmen even if they are within our immediate space?

Here in Winnipeg I find some will try to pretend they did not see you smile at them.

I notice that in the downtown core, but not in my neighbourhood.

The father is oblivious to the fact that she gets the water from the toilet.





This is an independent funny post in a thread of randomness.

I smile quite often, and nod a good bit too. When I was in Seattle visiting my brother, he was amazed while we walked that so many smiled or waved back to me. He said that never happens to him. I told him he needed to smile more lol. He also tried advising me to ignore a guy at the bus stop, but thats not how I roll. If Im talked to, I'll talk back.



I do believe it is a trend, cause some folks stay stuck in their phone and Fakebook. Easy for them to ignore people. They develop a mentality that ignoring is ok.

No ignoring where I live. Everybody knows each other in the town.

I suppose less ignoring in smaller towns. More ignoring in bigger cities.

I like my farm. A half section all to myself. Ride my quad and shoot badgers.

  Thanks, fellas, for your input.



I like both. The downtown energizes me but I need the country to fuel creativity in writing and painting mainly. The downtown pulse excites but the serenity of the countryside calms and quiets.

I didn't mind the city that much when I was young, but now I frickin hate it.
