View submission: What’s the weirdest “unwritten rule” everyone just follows?

I'm a doctor, and about 50% of the time I ask this in the office, I get an automatic 'Fine, thanks. How are you?' Which is hilarious and sets me up for my favorite joke of 'OK, well, I guess we can wrap up this visit then' while doing the Midwestern thigh slap

My therapist does something similar lol. I alway say "Fine" and she says "That's great I guess we can just just have tea then." knowing full well I'm not fine 😂

In wondering how slightly changing the wording of your question would affect the responses also.
