You know, people ask me this question all the time. "What are you doing?" It's like the unofficial catchphrase of nosy neighbors and overly concerned friends. I mean, can't a person just live their life without being interrogated every five minutes? The other day, my neighbor caught me in the act of doing something really suspicious – I was taking out the trash. Yeah, apparently, throwing away my pizza boxes and empty ice cream containers is now a criminal activity. She looked at me and said, "What are you doing?" I wanted to reply, "Oh, just disposing of the evidence from my wild Saturday night of Netflix and chill."
And it's not just neighbors. Friends do it too. They'll call you up out of the blue and hit you with that question, "Hey, what are you doing?" As if I'm going to admit to binge-watching cat videos on YouTube for the past two hours. "Oh, you know, just conquering the world, one funny cat video at a time."
So, next time someone asks me, "What are you doing?" I'm going to respond with something completely outrageous. "Oh, you know, just training my pet hamster to breakdance. It's a real talent show potential.

You know, this question has a way of making the most innocent activities sound suspicious. I was at the grocery store the other day, just minding my own business in the cereal aisle, and someone tapped me on the shoulder and said, "What are you doing?" Well, last time I checked, picking out my favorite brand of cereal was not a criminal offense. And don't even get me started on texting. If you take more than five minutes to respond, you can bet someone will message you, "What are you doing?" It's like they expect you to have a play-by-play of your life available at all times. "Currently typing. Now hitting send. Excitement level: moderate."
I've come to the conclusion that "What are you doing?" is just a socially acceptable way of saying, "I have nothing better to talk about, so let's interrogate each other about our mundane activities.

I've decided to flip the script on this whole "What are you doing?" thing. Now, when someone asks me that question, I respond with an air of mystery and intrigue. "Ah, my friend, if I told you, I'd have to enroll you in my secret society of mundane activities. Are you prepared for the thrilling world of laundry folding and dishwashing?" Or I'll give them a philosophical answer. "What am I doing? Ah, my dear Watson, I am engaged in the delicate dance of existence, navigating the complex tapestry of daily routines and existential ponderings." They'll be so confused; they won't dare ask me that question again.
So, the next time someone asks you, "What are you doing?" remember, it's not just a question; it's an opportunity for comedic genius and a chance to make the ordinary extraordinary.

I've noticed that this question is often asked at the most inconvenient times. Like when you're standing in front of the refrigerator, contemplating whether to eat the last slice of cake or not. You're caught in this moral dilemma, and then someone walks in and goes, "What are you doing?" Well, clearly, I'm having a profound moment with dessert, thank you very much. And let's talk about work. My boss loves to catch me in the break room and hit me with the classic, "What are you doing?" Uh, trying to figure out how to make coffee without burning down the office, Karen. What does it look like?
I've decided that the next time someone asks me, "What are you doing?" I'm just going to turn the tables on them. "What am I doing? What are YOU doing? Why are you so interested in my life? Is this a pop quiz, and I didn't get the memo?
