This is so-and-so.  We do such-and-such together.\n\nMuch more informative.

Can you rephrase the question so it is understandable?

Just say "Hi.  this is (so-in-so), (so-in-so)'s cousin.  Remember me?"  If he remembers you or is polite, he'll say "Yea ... how is everything?"  then you say "Everything is good..." (you start your conversation here).  Good luck!

I usually respond with "Hi."  Most people don't really care.  It's just a greeting that's similar to "Hello."  You could probably respond back with "What's up" also.

What are you trying to say? Rephrase it...

Yeah, it is correct to say "one" or "a person". It's so much easier just to say "you" tho. I always find myself tripping up on that. I think most people use "you" the wrong way.

from a woman of color.\n\ndont think of us and yourself and others as a color when talking to someone. simply say hello.\n\ni find it easier for me to start off by saying a wisecracking joke that is not offensive to anyone around me. but for others a simple hello is fine.

You could ask a mutual friend

I have always wondered the same thing. I thought i was the only one.  I think i usually say "your excused" or "uh-huh." I really donot know what to say without sounding funny.  That is not a silly question at all though.  I think it is a very good question.

There are many annoying things. But number one has got to be when someone talks like this, I was like at the mall and like this guy came by and I said like to my friend Margo, "hey, I like know that guy. Do you like know him too?" Margo replied, "yeah, I like know him too. I like know his sister too. I once like dated his like cousin." I walked like over by him and said, "hey dude, don't we like know you?" The dude says, "yeah, I like know you guys too. You like go to Joe's like on week ends? That place is like jammin and like cool. Like that is my like place."\n\nGet the idea? When I am forced to listen to a conversation with that language I want to kill someone. It like kills my last like nerve in my like body and like head!!!!!  \n\nO.K. ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\n\nHEY! That guy above me "MIKE LUMP" talks in the same language as the like people I just described.....I think he like knows them.

Its the sort of thing you say when you meet someone for the first time. They reply 'Very well thank you. And you?'. \n\nIt doesn't imply that you've met them before or know them better than you really do, as a phrase like 'How are you?' or 'How are things going?' would.\n\nYou then make smalltalk about the weather and things if you want to know them better. If not, you don't. Nobody loses face.\n\nIt all sounds a bit formal, like a royal garden-party, but you can do the same thing using less stuffy phrases, depending on what sort of people you're meeting (surfer-dudes, jocks, geeks or whatever).

don't get hung up on it, it is just a term someone uses to make a sentence more personal if he doesn't know you..it is very common to call a guy you don't know..Mate, Buddy, Bud,Chief, Amigo,...just like calling a woman, honey, love, baby or whatever..I'm sure the person didn't mean any offence by it
