What the fuck are you supposed to say when someone says, "what's

>>37331139
wow this is so retarded. why is a conversation required? a friendly hello should be enough.

>>37331166
So I should disregard their question and just say hello?

>>37331196
just say hey with a friendly smirk or some shit

>guy at work constantly says "WHAT'S UP"
>say "nothing much" every time
>gets mad at me because that's all I say
>basically say what do you want from me
>acts like I'm retarded for just wanting to do my job
>tells me how to run my life
>has stopped lately seeing as I'm some kind of failed lost cause
>asks me "YOU HAPPY TODAY?!"
>knows I have depression or something but wants to rub it in


fuck that job

>>37331139
Just say how your moos is, or if something out of the ordinary happened between the "what's up" period i guess

>>37331139
some classic possibilities:
"the sky"
"my stock portfolio"
"numerators"
"time"

>>37331316
Edit: Mood *

>>37331139
Just smile and say "not much!"

I'm not supposed to give away this normie secret to robots but..fuck it here we go

Just say
>Nothin' much, whats up with you

>>37331139
Not much, you?

Make sure to say it REAL casual and slow (not actually slow, just not rushed, but it'll feel slow if ur nervous)

Literally 99% delivery. Less about "wrong or right" answers

>>37331139
I get bored of this a lot but you're expected to do something.
I just smile and say some variation on
>Hey
Or mix it up with thumbs ups and waves.

It's not a literal thing, just a greeting. Greet them back and appear pleased to see them and you can say 'bananas' and people probably won't look twice.

>>37331139
Just say something you're going to do/already did (something job related) and change the subject to them, in any case the burden of carrying the conversation will be on them.
ie: just going to organize these files/papers/whatever, you?

>>37331213
I'll try that on tuesday.

>>37331316
When I'm at work my mood is neutral. I used to say I'm normal or average when people asked how I was but I eventually learned how autistic it was to say that.

>>37331425
That's what I've been doing but it isn't enough, people keep looking at me funny when I say that and they don't respond.

>>37331436
I'm quite sure my delivery is fine, just the improper response, at least in my culture.

>>37331684
Saying
>nothing what's up with you?
Feels like it should be an appropriate response. It must be something else.
Also
>at least in my culture
What culture is that?

>>37331763
California. Here if you're not peppy and outgoing you're seen as angry and people despise you for it.
