I think that great fun, and some non-small benefit, can result from
overturning the usual banal greeting questions.
A late friend responded to, "What do you do?" with "I don't *do*, I
*be*!" Assuming that didn't frighten them away she would then go on to
talk about the things she was doing, why they were important to her, and
finally, "What do you *be*?" (complete with that peculiar wording).
Her favorite answer was, "I... I'm not sure. Let me think about that."
An interesting approach to both connections and self-understanding, but
a bit off-putting for those living the unexamined life.
Cheers,
