I think it is the 3 most useless words in the whole universe.
I go for dinner gathering, a few persons will ask me "How are you?". It's the same for office lunches, etc. These 3 most useless words always irritate me.
Let me explain why.
1. The person asking probably has nothing to say after saying "Hello" or "Hi". He is not really interested in knowing how I am.
2. My reply will always be "I am fine, and you?". And his reply will be "I am fine" or "I am good".
Why waste time asking such redundant insincere questions in the first place? Just get straight into the point, right?
You ask me How am I, you think I will tell you I am not fine. You are just an acquaintance and I am not going to tell you about my life and how I feel.
Really irritated by all these redundant questions today...
