Save the Wave

Recommended Posts

Posted

So, after lusting on a sticker I saw at the dragon, a "Save the Wave" sticker. I have successfully tracked down the designer/maker. And I guess because I made such a stink about finding it on NAM and Facebook she has now set up a store. I loved the sticker on her husbands cooper that was in the car show (I think it was).

Oh, That's Brian's wife! I met him at the last AutoX I attended. He also had "All 2" sticker on his car at the dragon.

 

Yeah! That's it! Her name is Kim.

It seems kind of big. good for a countryman though.

 

It wasn't as big in person as it seems in these photos. I'll post when I get it mounted though to give some perspective.

I'm so sad, almost none of the MINI's around me wave. They all look at me like I'm a nutter.

 

:wavey: :hmmmm: This is how I imagine it going down.

VERY much how I feel, every single time. Well, other than at the Dragon, which was the land of wavers. :wavey: :wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

I recently waved at a girl who waved back, then rolled down her window to see what I needed. She was confused, but friendly :hmmmm::wavey:

 

I would imagine that your wave :wavey: is a little more enthusiastic then others :biggrin:.

 

Mine is the laid back, cool :cool: wave. A sideways peace sign and a thumbs up :top: My way of saying. " I see you and we are both cool MINIacs :biggrin:

UGH, failure. These people need to be enlightened to wave when they buy their MINIs.

You're right, I think Brian cause his license plate says Brain or something on it.

His name is Mark. His nickname/handle is mdsbrain. He's a former DCMM member, sold his first MINI a number of years ago, but has now bought another one. Good guy, known him for years (and his wife Kimberly). He has an account on our forums but is not a full member any more. I believe he's more active with C3M, which makes sense since he lives in Bowie, MD.

Awesome, didn't know they were locals. Been talking to Kim for a few days now. She is doing really well now apparently with the new etsy shop she set up.

I do an excited wave or a peace sign too!:cool:

 

I always pick 4 fingers off the wheel or do the peace raise. Peace usually for people I know have no clue what they are driving ie justa's or shocker........countryman.

Your logic is very similar to mine. I always initiate the wave, though. I do sometimes honk and wave too. Really sad/funny story - a lady in a pepper white R53 in Fairfax, I thought, was excitedly waving at me. Well, she does the roll the window down maneuver at a red light and she tells me that my tow hitch cover is broken. So really, she wasn't waving, she was trying to get my attention. :banghead: ... I appreciated her telling me it was broken, even though I already knew :(

So many people don't wave back but that makes it more special when you get an enlightened one.

 

There is a Save the Wave grill badge on Go Badges or Cooper Flags (I have had problems with the last 2 Cooper Flag orders) but the decal you posted in the MINI logo is nice.
