Now you turn around and act like I'm not worth your time. If I wasn't worth your time, you wouldn't have even posted your last response.
Me -- a genius? Hardly. Your last ditch "whatever" style of post, followed by name calling, basically spells out your intelligence level. I'll give you a hint: you're farther away from a genius level than I am.
E-*****? Maybe. People tend to say a bit more online than they would in person -- but then again, the medium tends to encourage that type of behavior.
You might be right though, so in the interest of fairness, I'll behave as I would in a "face to face" forum. I'll ignore you.

One of my best friends owns a STi. I've been with him on occasion when he give the obligatory wave to another STi (or even reg WRX at times) and will routinely get snubbed. I don't think he would wave to an Evo but if one waved to him he'd wave back.
I always enjoy a good wave. I raced some MR2 on the highway one afternoon in my ailing 7bolt Talon on it's last leg (crank walk, now a 6bolt stroker) and he ended up pulling on me. Later down the highway I went to exit and gave him the 'good goin' wave and I could see him in my mirror scramble to get his window down so he could recipricate. You gotta love that! (even tho I lost )
Everyone wave to everyone!

And in regards to my thread, I wouldn't have posted it it were simply ONE STi owner, but a general trend I had noticed. So I wondered if anyone else had noticed it too, just feeling for information. Clearly this is above Cabo's head, as he has to look at everything in black and white. Oh well, if I see him on the streets I'll just remember to flip him off.

my experiences w/ other wrx/sti's so far have been, tailgating me, pulling up w/ excessive BOV f@$%king noise, or even high beaming. WTF?!?! i dont know....... w/ other EVO's, usually a wave, but i just tend to nod because theres actually quite a few EVO drivers that are older and just got the car for the mid life crisis. lol j/p but i guess its the area you live in.....

I'm not sure if it's Suby guys hatin on Mitsu or if they're just jealous or hell they just weren't paying attention (phone calls are important ya know) But in the end, I don't see anything wrong with every Evo guy/girl in this forum giving a high-sign to every other Evo guy/girl when they thunder past each other. And hey don't forget us DSMer!! We're 4g63 too! We can all show the boxers some love, why not.
Ah screw it, I can't be waving to all these people. My arm will get tired and cold. Keep the windows up boys.

Not everyone thinks alike. You could wave at someone, and they may just be trying to figure out if they knew you, and who you were. That is a big possibility of not waving back, as far as getting the finger back, or thumbs down.....well, that could be rude. I have waved, and also been waved at, sometimes I don't have time to wave back, their already passing the opposite direction. Same with the bikes, sometimes someone coming the other direction will wave, most times I look for it, others, something on the road requires my attention more than looking over waving back.
