“How are you?”
“Fine.”
How are you?
“Good.”
How strange that we repeat this rhetorical question a gazillion times a day and answer it too, fooling ourselves into thinking people actually want an answer. The next time someone asks me, I plan to reply, “Well, I’m tired, really horny and I think I have a yeast infection.” Gotta shake it up a bit at work, you know?
Fine. Fine. Fine.

You mean you aren’t supposed to answer?? I always give everyone a complete report. Curiously, hardly anyone asks me any more.
I say we advocate for honesty all the time. I love me some inner dialogue from strangers!
