We've all been there - walking down the street, bumping into someone we know, and getting hit with the inevitable question: "How are you?" It's a loaded question, really. Do they actually want to know how we're doing? Or are they just being polite?

Well, here are a few humorous responses to brighten up your day and make the conversation a bit less awkward:

"I'm about as good as my last selfie."

Let's face it, we all put our best foot forward on social media. If you're feeling pretty good about yourself, this cheeky response is sure to get a chuckle.

"I'm as happy as a clam in a clam chowder bowl."

This one's a bit of a tongue-twister, but it's worth the effort. It paints a pretty hilarious picture, too.

"I'm doing better than my mother-in-law's meatloaf."

If there's one thing that's universally known, it's that nobody wants to eat a bad meatloaf. Use this response to let the other person know that things are going pretty well for you.

"I'm living the dream, but it's more of a nightmare at the moment."

This one's perfect for those times when you're feeling a bit worn down by life. It's funny, but it's also relatable - we've all had those "nightmare" days.

"I'm so glad you asked - nobody ever does."

If you're feeling sassy, use this response to let the other person know that you're not just going to give a bland, boring answer.

So there you have it - a few humorous responses to the age-old question of "How are you?" Use one of these the next time you're put on the spot, and watch the conversation take a hilarious turn.
