    Only in NY? Everyone knows that isn’t a question to be answered. It’s chit-chat, an opener. What’s happening? How are you? What’s popping? Not questions that need answers. You reply ‘not much’ and move on.

      Fuck that, I will answer it if I want to. Yes, I know the socially acceptable pretend bullshit that is expected, but if they are going to ask I will be honest if I feel like it.

      Usually I don’t because they probably just do it because everyone else does, but it gets really old.
