Actual conversation I overheard in the bathroom at work today:
(the names have been changed.... well, maybe. i don't know their names, so maybe i guessed the right ones)
Bob: Hey Jim, how's it going?
Jim: I don't know.
At this point, i was getting ready to leave the bathroom, but i had to stick around to see if Jim was going to EXPLAIN why he didn't know how "it was going". But alas, there was to be no explanation on this day. And it's not like he said it in a distraught way (like he just found out that his cat died or something, and he's in some sort of depressed haze and can't concentrate). It was very nonchalant.
who says that? one of the strangest responses to a normal question i've ever heard.
ONE MORE NOTE from today (i know you're all on the edge of your seats... buckle up):
Sirius Satellite Radio (which I have, otherwise i probably wouldn't be talking about it) announced a new channel today.... Playboy Radio. does anyone else see a major problem with this? for those of you that aren't following, let me be a little clearer:
playboy RADIO

Not that the channel has any appeal to me-- or that I even HAVE satellite radio of any sort-- but I can only speculate that you get to listen to someone being naked? I'm not sure how that works. Maybe a commentator? How would "color" commentary sound in that kind of situation?
it's kind of like watching TV with the sound off... what's the point? unless you're watching porn.
I still assert that when people ask you "how it's going,"--especially in the men's room-- they really don't care, they just wanna hear "fine" so they can say "good," and move on with their day. Doesn't everyone know that one guy who always says, "eh... things could be better" when asked how he is? Doesn't that guy make you feel horribly awkward?
top five responses that would make you feel awkward:
5. I'm ok, but I doubt our men and women overseas are quite as good.
4. You heard they're transferring me to Detroit, right?
3. Fine. You know, they never did catch that Anthrax guy. (material... from SNL)
2. Ask my whore of an ex-wife.
1. Well, I just found out I have an abnormal growth on my left ball, but otherwise I'm ok.
