Badger, it depends how it’s done. In southern culture, if you make eye contact with someone, you’re supposed to greet them. If you do it that way, then in the worst case, folks will just think you’re friendly or southern.
It’s not chasing anyone down. It’s just being engaging and polite but in a “has testicles” way.
