Why do people message saying "what's up?". It is hardly a greeting is it?

It’s the perfect greeting to let you know the person lacks imagination and social skills.

I normally either don't reply or say that I don't understand the question !

It is a greeting. It's like saying, "How are you? What's new?"

CathyUK · 56-60, F

It's just the new way of saying "hello how are you today?"

Its an informal greeting maybe too young or ghetto for you :)

People who begin with "Hey" or "what's up?" are almost always fetish or perv people trying to start a sex chat even though my profile says I'm not into that stuff. I guess it's the best they can do.

When they ask me "What's up?", I reply, "My dick". And then I get blocked. Have I done anything wrong? 🤔

Some sort of American hillbilly greeting I suppose

Some time if I'm feeling really loose I'll just write. "Wu"

midnightrose · F

They want to know what you're doing?

xixgun · M

I tend to go with, "What."

bijouxbroussard · F

Not if you don’t know what it means. 😅

Try when they go "Hi"....

... And that's it!

Oooh - woo me with your words!! 🤦‍♀️🤣

From experience, a short answer/reply saves time in doing long ones - some people don’t even have the decency to reply, hence, short initial contact, I think that’s what the ‘heart’ system on SW is for
