Ni how are you?

A typical greeting between Chinese Americans, used as a combination of the Chinese: "Ni hao" and the English: "How are you?" Its a way for the Chinese Americans, also known by the Chinese as bananas, white on the inside and yellow on the outside, to celebrate both their asian and western heritage.
When a Chinese American ask a fellow Chinese American the age old question "Ni how are you? Would you like some dumplings?" They always expect them to reply: "Ni how are you yourself? Im good, and dumplings sounds terrific! Happy year of the unicorn!"

How are you?

Not as simple a question as it seems at first glance. You usually say "I'm fine", no matter how you really feel – this is only for the closest people. Because explaining why you feel bad isn't very pleasant thing and few people won't take it seriously.
Usually when people ask how I'm doing(how are you?) , the real answer is I'm doing shitty, but I can't say I'm doing shitty, because I don't even have a good reason to be doing shitty. So if I say, "I'm doing shitty," then they say, "Why? What's wrong?" And I have to be like, "I don't know, all of it?" – Bojack Horseman
