How we ask each other often strangers "How are you doing?" and we always answer "Ok. or Good" Your girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband could have left you for somebody younger/hotter/richer. Your dog or cat could have died. You could have unpaid medical bills(for us US'ians) causing impending financial disaster. All in the same day. Chances are you will still say "O.K. or good."
I thought of this because I was like "can I really not say "Sort of shitty?" Why ask then? Isn't it kind of a meaningless gesture like asking someone if apple pie tastes good?
