I just got a thumbs up IRL. An old man driving by looked at me, approved of my lovely self, smiled creepily and thumbsed me up. Is that normal? At all?

    Better that than a thumbs down, surely?

    I'm one of those people who gives thumbs up in real life. I even have a massive thumbs up decal on the back of my car - it's a thumbs up on top of a ringed planet - It's the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy symbol.

    People give me a lot of thumbs up in return. I love it. Spreading the happiness. :)

    When I drive by someone who's driving like a jackass, I give them a thumbs down. It's much better than giving the middle finger.

      Good thing you're not in the middle east.
      You'd be telling them to sit on it.
      XD

      I give bad drivers a thumbs up but I'm not sure if the sarcasm is received as intended.

        Try it down next time, just for kicks, and see if you get a better reaction.

    I thumb up people that drive the same car as mine. Now I know more than 15 cars that "thumb" me back, or wave, or flash the lights.
