In the south of England we have "alright?". The only valid answer is "alright?.

"Alright" I think is used all over England, maybe even the UK, it's not specific to the south :-)

Yeah I find that annoying. It means nothing and is just a waste of everyone's time, much like:

"How are you?" "Not bad, yourself?" "Good, so I have this problem..."

"Hey, how was your weekend?" "Not bad actually, you?" "Yeah not bad"

I mean, you clearly have no interest in other person's life, so why have stupid, dull, pointless greetings like that?
