I usually will say "hello" or "what's up?"
I'm pretty friendly and joke around a lot and I like to use it as a way to bring the situation back down to earth. It's VERY hard for a guy not to nod and smile back if I look up, smirk and say "what's up, man?"
Staring where I'm from is a challenge. if someone is staring hard they usually mean to fight you. Doesn't mean you should start a fight, but be prepared to possibly have to throw a punch. I've never had this happen to me, but for whatever reason, in Newark, people who stare you down are usually challenging you.
I largely see it as alpha/beta bullshit, but guys just seem to do that.

I will be checking my PMs weekly, so you can catch me there. I will not be posting.
