“Most importantly, the GIF captures how I usually want to answer the question, ‘How are you doing?’ Meaning, with honesty and passion and detail”

I’d seen GIFs of Dorinda Medley — a peroxide-blonde force of nature from the Real Housewives of New York City — for the last year or two, but this one felt special. As soon as I downloaded it to my phone, I began posting it regularly: on long threads in secret Facebook groups, in response to silly tweets on my timeline, and weekly in my Instagram stories.
But this GIF runs on a deeper level for me. I found it outside of its original context. I still to this day don’t know its original context. I’ve imagined one in my head making the GIF bigger and more valuable than just the Bravo franchise where it originated. Most people don’t truly want to know how you’re doing if they ask that question. If they did, they would ask with specificity. They would pinpoint moments in your life they paid attention to in the past and follow up on them. Things like, “How is the job search going?” after you were just laid off or, “How are you coping with seeing your ex and his new girlfriend?” after a traumatizing breakup.
