    Late 1900's, I was thinking 1908, maybe 1909.

    Older women were constantly rolling down their car windows to ask if I was wearing Bugle Boy jeans.

    Such a simpler and more courteous time. Just 2 dudes on their early 1900s donks greeting each other. Where did we, as a society, go wrong?

    It’s what is colloquially known as docking. Search for ‘two dudes docking’ for more information.
