Being the courteous driver I am, I stopped to let a pedestrian cross in front of me yesterday. They looked straight forward and walked to the other side without turning to give me a thank you wave or anything. Nothing. Who does that?! For crying out loud...I wanted my thank you wave. It makes me not want to be so kind. You HAVE to give a thank you wave...it's like THE RULE!

I'm a believer in the thank you wave. I also do the I'm sorry wave if I ever accidentally do something stupid while driving.
It's a good thing you're not in Philly...people think you are crazy if you smile or wave at ANYONE while driving (or walking)! Only negative hand gestures and honking is permitted! And Happy Belated Birthday! I'm very jealous about your Lasik, but maybe you've convinced me to go and just have it done. I know when I can see first thing in the morning I'm going to feel like I have super powers!
that's why i don't stop for pedestrians ... even if they've already started crossing. i just speed up and they get out of the way.
i had a roommate who hated when people waved. she was all, "they don't need to wave. they have the right of way!"
