How are you? Response...

How’re ya goin?
Good.
Good
That’s the way.
(Aussie version ! )

I always reply with ....

Abnormal this week and subnormal last week!

Peoples faces fall off when I say that!

Sadly these days I either say don’t ask or just plodding on. Not a very joyous response to anyone who takes the trouble to ask.

My MIL, who is nearly 100, always says she is 'still breathing'.

I tend to say 'I'm bearing up' to people I know, and 'fine thanks' (regardless) to those I don't.

My answer is always, whatever my actual circumstances, ‘Fine, thanks’. I know someone who always, without fail, says ‘Not too bad’.

thuberon- love it. Aberdeenshire area?

My usual answer is - not too bad, thankyou

Ive had a few medical problems over the last fea years, and continuing, so my usual answer to that tends to be either "still breathing " or something like " still evading the grim reaper so far"

To friends and family it’s always rockin and rollin 😂

Where I come from the response would be either

Fine

Nae fine

Affa nae fine

or

No deid yet

My dad always said 'still walking and talking'.

Chipper.

An acquaintance of mine, if asked how his wife is, responds with a small pause and then " Well, she's still my wife..."
They have been married for over half a century.

When asked OH mostly replies ABSOLUTELY average.

Hungry. Nearly lunchtime though.

usually around here its could be worse or well I am still here or alive

I always say "fine thank you" I can't stand this "good" I fell as I want to say "good at what?"

My late DH would respond with (to my mind impenetrably) “not so dusty”!
I say, “Well. But then I am a very well person…”

I have a friend who says ‘Still above ground!’ with a hearty laugh.

My usual reply is 'surviving'.

I had an uncle, whe when asked how he was always replied 'delirious', in a lugubrious tone.

Round here our usual reply to
"How are you?" is
"Can't complain."
To which both parties then say,
"Well you can, but it won't do any good!"

Love that!

I was brought up to reply “fine thank you” even if my leg was falling off 😁

Me too 😂😂😂😂

My husband used to say Well at least I’m looking down on the daisies not up!

When my Dad was in his 90’s he would reply “Well I’ve read the paper and there’s no mention of me in the obituary column so that’s a good start to the day!

Best one yet!

I like that Aveline.
My Dad used to respond, Alive and kicking! Would probably be taken the wrong way today.
