When passing by a stranger on the street, I find it best to acknowledge that the given person exists. This usually consists of a simple "whats up," "good morning" etc. And most people do seem to respond well to strangers prompting a courtesy hello...
What annoys me the most about some of these people though, is their seemingly uncontrollable urge to repeat your greeting..."Hey, how's it goin"...."Hey, how's it goin"...that sounds so fucking stupid...say fine, decent, good, hell even ignoring it would be better, but don't repeat something that isn't an answer in itself. Now I do acknowledge that repeating certain things is okay...though most of the time subpar. For example: "hey"..."hey" is okay, but "hey"..."morning" is better. Just saying.
