I said "Hey, a Jalopnik fan"! While putting up a hand for a high five. He promptly ignored me. I feel hurt inside

Edit: Pretty sure he drove the bright yellow Miata I parked next to. This happened in Redwood City, CA yesterday.

I was under the impression that we are supposed to immediately engage in violent sex acts with other Jalops we encounter in the wild. Maybe try that next time? Not sure what else to say really.

Should have high fived him. In the face. With a chair.

Maybe it was Edward Scissorhands, and he just wanted to save you from drawing back a nub. Safety first!

If it makes you feel any better, I would have high fived you!

I'm not one for random high fives, but I would at least acknowledge your presence and say something. It would probably be awkward, cause that's me. But still.

Well, it wasn't me.

I still haven't received mine or even a reply email from Jalopnik from the competition. _

well, I don't have a costco membership, so it wasn't me.

I would have high fived you so hard. If you see them again, ask them where they got their shirt.

Well...uh...maybe he just left the can...and didn't wash his hands...and, uh...has some unexplained growth on his dick...

....or, better still, maybe he was about to got to the can to touch his dick (ostensibly to piss) and didn't want to wash his hands prior, not knowing where your hands have been the past 24 hours...

(look, I'm trying, here...you got bitched by a fellow Jalop...trying to lessen the sting...work with me, OK?)

The only time I passed another Phaeton while driving mine, I tooted my horn and waved.

The guy flipped me the bird.

Don't feel bad, I often forget what shirt I am wearing and I get people making comments to me assuming I am aware of my shirt but they mean nothing to me. Always pretty awkward.

I don't think it was me, I don't think I wore that to Costco this week. But I understand about a quarter of anything I hear in Georgia. I was checking into a hotel yesterday, the nice old lady in the gift shop saw me pushing a luggage cart and said, "mumble mumble mumble eighteen wheeler" with a smile. I laughed and said, OK!" Before moving on. Wtf, Georgia?!

Okay...if you aren't wearing your "Wagon Wheel" shirt to identify yourself to other Jalopnik fans, why are you even wearing it?? It's why I bought mine. I suppose many Jalops are more comfortable in front of the computer (or behind the wheel) than out in public, and we should chalk it up as that...

I'm not that dude, but personally I forget what clothes I'm wearing most of the time.
If somebody says "hey jalopnik way cool!" I would have no idea if they are talking to me or their bluetooth

but if they say"hey your wearing a jalopnik shirt!" and point at my shirt I would smile and engage in conversation

"Violent sex acts." Close. This is the official Jalopnik salutation.

This happened to me yesterday at the Philly Auto Show!

I saw a guy with that shit, which I also own, and I said pretty much what you did. He looked at me, as if he heard me, and then kept going about his day. I bet he's reading this now...

Edit - Also, RickyD and MylesD....hmm.
