How should one respond when someone asks you "How are you doing?" at the start of the conversation?
“How should one respond when someone asks you "How are you doing?" at the start of the conversation?”This is such a simple question when it is asked of me. I know that about 98% of the time the person asking the question doesn’t really care one way or the other. The question, for them, is a social convention that is actually meaningless.However, I’ve given it some thought and I finally came up with what has become my typical response.“How are you?/How are you doing?”Me: “I’m doing amazingly well, how about you?” (sometimes augmented with “I’m doing awesome and amazingly well, how about you?”I don’t know why but, for some people, that answer surprises and somewhat shocks them.“Well, I’m doing ok but wow, nowhere near as good as amazingly well.”I started getting these responses and that made me think deep thoughts. Serious deep thoughts.It’s like this, it’s up to me to choose how I feel about my day. Sure, there could be some mitigating circumstances that are bad but, in the end, I am the master of my destiny and my feeling and emotions. No one else can do what I can do. I make a conscious decision that today is going to be an amazing day. Whether it lives up the hype or not, my feelings about the day rarely changes.You can be in a shitty mood or a sad mood or whatever floats your boat. I’ve had enough days where I woke up and chose to be in a crappy mood. Screw that. I don’t have time left on my clock to waste it on negative feelings and emotions. The day itself and the circumstances may suck but by God I will still be having an awesome and amazing day and I will share that with anyone willing to ask me for it.

Can you help me? what`s the name of this song ( 80`s ) 10points pleasee!?
Could it be The Breakup Song by the Greg Kihn Band?: We had broken up for good just an hour before, Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. And then the band slowed the tempo, and the music gets you down. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. It was the same old song, with a melancholy sound. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. They don't write 'em like that anymore. They just don't write 'em like that anymore. We'd been living together for a million years, Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. But now it feels so strange out of the atmospheres. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing so slow. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. They don't write 'em like that anymore. They don't write 'em like that anymore. Mmmm, now ? I wind up staring at an empty glass Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. They don't write 'em like that anymore. No, they just don't write 'em like that anymore. Oh, they don't write 'em like that anymore. They just don't write 'em like that anymore. They just don't, no they don't, no no, uh-uh, They just don't write 'em like that anymore. They just don't...(fades)

Hi. I'm auditioning for Shrek for my high school musical. If you have seen the musical, could you help me with this? I don't know who Gingy is talking to in this monologue. If you know, please give me some context so I understand it better. Thanks. "Ohhhh, gosh. Uh-oh, what’s happening now? Oooo, this is scary. Ohhhh, geez. Ohh, no it’s you. Look what you’ve done to my legs! You’re a monster! This is not a kingdom and you are not a king! "
What is the best way to convince your girlfriend when she is angry at you?
I have been in this situation many a times and I tried a lot of things to convince my girlfriend every time she was upset/angry at me but nothing seemed to work. In fact, matters got even worse when I tried resolving the issues. But then one day I came back from a long day of work and found my girlfriend greatly pissed at me for some reason. I was too tired and didn't want to put in any effort to convince her for I knew it would turn into another argument and all my efforts will go in vain. I just wanted to have a few drinks to help me relax, listen to some nice music, have dinner and sleep. And this is exactly what I did but there's a way for doing it which I think might help you. So keep these points in mind whenever there's an argument between you and your girlfriend.Golden rule - Never argue and try to convince your girlfriend if she's not in the right mood. Try and calm her down by just accepting your fault and apologizing for it. Say sorry and mean it or just act as if you mean it. There's no harm in letting your girlfriend win an argument.Take her out for a casual outing. It doesn't have to be a proper date. Go to some nice restaurant whose food you both like, order a couple of drinks, talk about work and how has your day been. Ask the same from her and listen to what she's saying or just pretend that you're interested.These are the smallest things you can do to convince her. It worked wonders for me and it can help you too. I was actually doing what I wanted to do but made it look like It was for her. Hope that helps!Good luck!
