I love the clip, but I was thinking the same thing. "Living the dream" has always been an expression to summarize everything that's in the clip. You'd see another pilot, do a quick "howwyoudoin'", they'd do a "Livin' the Dream", grin, grin, and everything was said, from "the Captain that's right behind me is a douche", to "I hate my schedule". Satisfying, understandable, efficient.
Now what do we do, if we're too cool for "Living the Dream"? Do we start describing our apolitical feelings about things not work-related, or do we go all "DTW", and pretend we don't see each other?
Is awkervsation even a word?

Maybe, "I'm just a line pilot." Or the ATL version "golly, I'm just a line pilot."
Maybe "I'm just trying to backdoor my schedule." Use it all month. or "I'm sneaking in the backdoor." As in I'm lucky to be here.

We need one that is an APCF codeword. I mean I know there is a hand signals but you can't go flashing shockers around in every setting.

Challenge: "Did you hear about Jesse?" Response: "Yeah, that was a shame."
And if you're a "Living the dream" guy, I personally am OK with you sticking with that rather than changing over to and saying "Are we having fun yet?" three times a day. Because I have no suitable reply for that one that isn't snarky or cynical; just awkward silence.
