Phrase- Hello! How are you?
What it means to a normal person- Hello! How are you?
What it means to me- I am unsure on how to navigate this conversation in the right direction, so I will ask a meaningless three worded question, as to which, the answer doesn’t even matter to me.
Phrase- How’s the weather?
Normal person’s answer- It seems to be a nice day out today.
My answer- To be honest, the current status of the earth’s atmospheric war to reach a state of equilibrium that will not be reached until the earth completely denigrates into the universe and no longer is of existence doesn’t interest me much. If you wish to know how the weather is, I suggest you look out of your window, and observe with your limited human senses.
Phrase- What are you up to?
Normal person- Nothing much, you?
Me- I am currently up to inhaling reasonable amounts of oxygen, and exhaling usable carbon dioxide that will most likely benefit the bamboo plant in my room. Now I am looking at my bamboo plant and thinking about how awesome it is that plants don’t have to worry about having eating disorders considering plants just photosynthesize.
