The Eyebrow Hello

I tend to say hi to strangers on the street. Just kind of a non-chalant, "hello" as we breeze by each other. But lately, instead of the verbal hello, I've been using the eyebrow hello. I'm not sure if this is the official name for the movement, if it even has an official name, but I'm calling it that. Whenever I walk by someone lately, whether it's in my office or in the hallway or on the street, I lift my eyebrows a tad. Kind of like this:

My normal eyes


And then as I pass somebody


I certainly didn't invent this movement, but I'm not sure why this has become my thing all of the sudden. And why am I doing it so excessively? I'm eyebrow helloing everyone I pass! Coworkers, strangers, passing cars. I think I even eyebrow helloed a dog today (it should be noted that I'm pretty sure the dog eyebrow helloed me back, or whatever the dog equivalent is).

But I'm putting an end to it now. I don't know if I can go cold turkey; I just don't have the strength inside me. And to be honest, there is a time and a place for the eyebrow hello. But it certainly isn't at every person/animal I see. I may need help. If you all find this getting out of hand, an eyebrow hello intervention may be necessary. If it comes to that, feel free to bring the electric razor - that may be the only answer.
