I'm more of a "Whattup Bro" and "fist pound" kinda guy. Particularly in the office.

I use "Hi" most of the time. To me, it actually sounds more positive than the longer and darker sounding "Hello".

Howdy.

I long ago gave up "What's up?" and "how are you?" and "How you doing?" because they are questions and I really don't want a damn answer. I realized I really don't care, so I just say "howdy".
