5 things to say when asked, “What’s up?”
Many times, people ask, “what’s up?”. I always wondered what is a good answer to this seemingly casual question that needs to be asked so people don’t think you are rude or someone who doesn’t care.
Many times, I have also seen people answering “all good”, “the usual”, “just the normal” or in some very rare cases “fantastic”. The thing that really gets to me however is, this entire dialogue of what’s up actually happens multiple times with neither of the parties really wanting to know what’s up!!! Isn’t that funny?!
So, a couple of friends and I put together responses that can literally tell people what’s up! :) The intention is to shake the really nice fellow asking you this question just for the sake of it. Ease up the nice fellow a little bit, so a real dialogue happens between you two. Read on to pick the one/ones for you.
- A little bit of blue sky competing to be seen (unless you are in the amazon forest)
- Trump, oh no, Hillary, wait a min, its Trump again!! (or the likes in your country at the time, feel free to extend this analogy to sports)
- The obscenely irritating price of fuel (a rant that everyone relates to)
- God Almighty! (with a sign of the cross, if you wish)
- Dopamine and Serotonin (feel good and happy hormones, that you can say are up if you are happy to meet the person)
No matter what response you choose, say it with a smile. Top it up with a feeling/emotion that adds life. Deliver it with utter sincerity. After all, you would want a meaningful conversation too.
If you come across some more brilliant responses, please do write back.
Have a great day ahead!
