QUOTE(mipadi @ Aug 10 2005, 12:30 PM) But to the point: do you have a different reply each time someone asks you that question that actually tells them how the day really is going, or, like me, do you just have a single answer, no matter how bad (or good) the day is? "Could be better"; it can always be better.

I usually say the same few things.
Usually "ehh, alright....and yourself?" or "could be better, but not bad....you? |

i glare at them and then they go away.
unless they're hot then i say life sucks and then glare at them. well i actually i mostly just glare, then say life sucks (unless i'm happy then it's ok), and then the conversation they were attempting to start never happens. unless of coures i bring up the aliens, but that's just alienatic. |

I answer "I'm fine" no matter what.
I don't really know how to answer to "how are you?"...

i always say i'm fine...because the person who usually asks me that is only asking me for the sake of talking to me to show that he acknowledges my presence. but he's just an ass who talks sh*t about me behind my back and i don't really want to delve into my life with him.

"Oh-it's..-*mumbles off*" I feel awkward when asked that because it's usually 1. a relative I haven't seen ... ever 2. some random lady in a store who doesn't really give a crap about my day.
