I saw a pink Tesla on the freeway today.

Must have been the top Mary Kay producer in the country.

I answer "what's up" with "how's it going"

Or sometimes with a simple "sup".

LOLOLOLOLOL

Nah, 'How's it going' is meh but 'I'll tell you how I'm ****ing doing', that's real NYC.

Mixtape nostalgia

If there was evar any-****ing-doubt-AT-ALL, USA clearly #!*:

*the evidence CAN NOT BE DENIED!11!!1!11!1!!!!11!!!11!!!1!!!1!!

Why is it superior?

It is easier for the simpletons in the rest of the world to use because it is centigrade. It is an iPhone. USA#1 is capable and willing to do more work.

I was born and lived till 16 y.o. in what is now Kazakhstan. Obligatory Borat jokes ..... Naaaa they don't piss me off

And with "How are you?" ..... OOOO MAN! That was so confusing for me when I started to learn english. In russian culture if you ask something like that, you are at least a little bit interested and must expect to to really hear what the person has on his/her mind. It was incredibly, unbelievably confusing this concept that people ask you "How are you?", but actually aren't interested. It is just a greeting. It takes for me to this day a conscious effort not to tell as a response something about my day, but just a formula like "fine, and you?".


edit..... I actually forgot to write down why I opened this thread now. Text messages without a name do piss me off. Something like "Hi lapka, are you still looking for this book"..... I mean.... The person has my name and my phone number! And apparently expects to be in my address book! But I have no clue who that is. And! I am indeed looking for this book and clicked yesterday on few offers. So I deduce that it must be one of this offers. But still .... Why does he know my name and number? And am I somehow under obligation to know who he is? That all can be so easily avoided by just giving his name and a one-word-context in this text message.

"how are you" is an opportunity to piss people off with cliche responses like "just living the dream"

"new phone who dis" is how we handle the latter issue in USA#1.

lapka:

I think you meant “I *had* never seen a coke” instead of “have.”

"Another day in paradise" is a response i hate hearing from the working man.

"Did you see John?"
"Yeah I seen him on my way over."

Several times in the past few days my mother-in-law has said "howsomever".

"wah-lah" instead of voila.

Let's touch bases later.

correct spelling is WALLA obv

Every time a woman has said that to me the blood drained from my brain so fast it never occurred to me to be pissed off.
