A question


What does FINE stand for? Starts with a naughty word but I always think it is so clever when someone asks and I say I'm fine and I remember that FINE actually stands for.......I can't remember....anyone know?

I've heard alot of different defs. But I hope these help:
"Feelings Inside, Not Expressed"
"F*** Up, Insecure, Emotional"
"Frightened, Unsettled, Intenstive, Emotional"
Those are the ones I can think of

Well then, I suppose that is why my stock answer to the question, "How are you?", which is, "I am not unwell, thank you," makes some people scratch their heads and wonder....I smile while they are trying to figure out what I  said.  I will certainly never use the word, "fine."  Thank you.
