Nothing much IS LAME
Dude #1 in bathroom [trying to sound relaxed and cool]: “Hey, dude. What’s up?”
Dude #2 in bathroom [trying to sound cool in response]: “Nothing much.”
Nothing much is perhaps the lamest response to a greeting EVER, but it is made even lamer when the greetee attempts to sound cool saying it.
There are an infinite number of better responses to What’s up? than Nothing much. What’s up? is a beautiful blank canvas. In the 2 minutes spent walking back from said bathroom where I almost peed on those dudes out of disgust, the following responses came to mind. I provide them for you to use, at high volume, the next time you are asked What’s up?
CHILDHOOD OBESITY!
GLOBAL POPULATION!
A PIXAR MOVIE!
MINIMUM WAGE!
ELEVATORS!
YOUR MOM!
7!
Anyhow, anything’s better than Nothing much.
