I always give a head nod to brothers I pass on the street. The older ones always nod back with a "how ya doing young blood

"
The young dudes? Not so much. Some will nod back and say "sup bruh" but the majority of the time they be on some

I just look at em with the


like damn what are you trying to prove by walking around with a stick up the ass? I'm not trying to "test you" or make you look weak or challenge you or none of that hateful bullshyt.
I just like to acknowledge my brehs when I see em, it's bad enough everyone else looks at us like an ant on a sidewalk so no need to get defensive just because I said hi.
I never had that happen until I moved up to the west coast.
DOWN SOUTH EVERYONE ON THE STREET GREET EACH OTHER LIKE FAM.
