All those stories about how NY-ers never make eye contact whilst walking on sidewalks or riding in the subway....well, I get it now and don't fault their "avoid conflict" daily routine.

This is exactly the opposite of how I act while in Atlanta multiple times a week for 20+ years. I purposefully make eye contact with anyone I see as a threat. I do so to let them know I see them and in my mind I’m thinking “I will fricking end you”. I do this so my face shows that and I truly believe they can feel that energy.
