RE: Taking Advantage of Comment Sections

in #howto8 years ago

True, however, I think most people are accustomed to saying that looks like and or I like that. Those people must those that always ask how are you, reply fine and move on. They never put into thought a more thoughtful response. I like to answer that question with I am conquering the free the world or living the dream.

How do you answer the question, how are you?!

Sort:  

If I have the time I try and break a question like that up into parts. That one is rather easy. My thought process for answering such a question “how are you?” is as follows.

Reply back with how I am doing

I am doing great today / I just had a horrible day / Well there is a reason for day time drinking / meh

Something that replies back with the emotion I have been feeling for the day.

Elaborating further

I am going to be spending the weekend doing this / this just happened / I was not expecting such good news

Here I try and included more details about what makes me feel about that in such a way. It can create further dialog back and forth between people as now they are just talking about their day

Follow up question/answer

How was your day / oh I’m sorry that happened / have a great day

Pulling it out like that makes it look more robotic then it really is. Sometimes it is scary thinking about how the thought process of such a question can be drawn out in that way.

Do you consistently answer this way? I hope more people become honest with their answers like you. <3

I find the more unique my answer the more likely I am to receive an honest response. It is always a bonding moment.

Not always. It can depend on who I am interacting with. Mostly comes down to time. I have to sometimes move conversions towards its end result aka killing/ending it.

I don’t try and continue a conversation as much as I like. I often find just too many things going on!

How would you go about answering the question you posed of “how are you?”

I like to answer that question with I am conquering the free the world or living the dream. I usually get a giggle and a more thoughtful response.

I see I dint put two and two together when you said that early in another conversion. That is one way to go about it hehe.

Do you dislike such a question? Is it to one dimensional?

I'm glad you noticed that slight oversight. I was a little considered you were bored with my comment and read over it. Obviously not the case.

I love this question because it is common and gives the opportunity to answer with uncommon answers. The shock value alone is worth it.

My goal is to make them smile and if my silly response makes a dent in that direction well who knows how it may be paid forward.

What would you say is the most annoying question to answer? Or one that holds a double standard?

I’m sorry about that. It’s just check up on my follower’s day. Doing it a bit ahead of the weekend. Lots of commenting and replying back to things.

The most annoying questions have to be ones people already know the answer to. Like in school when people would ask questions just so they could be “class participation” or try and make the teacher think they were paying attention. I often got accused and graded low for “class participation” because I dint ask questions. Always anger me because I read the books and other things ahead of time. The class going over it for the “first” time was actually my review phase lol. People always thought I had some crazy high IQ and was some whiz kid. Nope, I just read ahead…

Oh the glory days of being back to school. Let's not relive those days. You know since we both live in Florida we should have our own meet up. How close do you live to Fort Lauderdale?
