    Actually, before I got here today, I met up with a friend I haven't seen for a while and ended up proving myself a bit of a liar - I greeted him with "How's things?". I guess it's just my way of opening the conversation to what's been happening for the other person lately as I'm much more comfortable listening to other people than telling my 'sob story' over and over again.

    I cannot believe your all having an in-depth conversation about such a short, silly phrase.

    You MUST be bored!

    LMAO

    It's because I'm sober. If I weren't, I would inflate a morality debate in the AoDA instead.

    The correct answer is:

    A direction leading directly away from the center of a celestial object.

    To the question "What's up?"

    As to the phrase it's just a conversation starter or a small-talk sentance. Some people hate beeing asked What's up? how you doin? hows it going? all the time but I agree very much with chevalier, if we don't answer kindness with kindness then what will this world turn into?
