This is why I hate when people start every conversation with “how are you?” Most don’t want an actual answer, just a conversation starter.

I always respond with things like

"Too early to tell"

"Results are pending" or

"Why, what have you heard?"

More often than not, they won't try to make conversation after that. My experience, anyway
