I'm sure we tend to be very polite around older people but around people our age,
do you guys say Hello? Yo dog? or anything like that?
Or do you have your own language ( by own language, I don't mean a real language) something
that you picked up or a word you invented by yourself.
And do you guys really greet people your age the formal way?
Like, before a conversation, you go, "Good evening, blablabla"?
Do you really do that?

I greet people simply by saying 'Hey'
Pssh. I don't need some fancy shebang to make my greeting more outgoing.

Depending on how old and whether or not I need to be formal.

But sometimes, if its a really good friend...a random topic
like 'Did you watch...?'

"Hey"
"Yo"
"What's up"
(all of the above usually followed by a handshake, or a nod of greeting)
To girls my age:
"Hi 'insert name here'"
(usually followed by a wave)
When meeting strangers my age and older:
"Hi, I'm 'insert my name here'" (usually followed by a handshake)
When they initiate by saying the above, I say "Likewise"
To people I know of higher status:
"Hello, professor."
"Hello, sir."
"Good morning/afternoon/evening 'insert status here'"
(These are usually only followed by a smile after the first meeting which is done with a handshake)
I dunno, to me handshakes are really important in terms of greetings. I was brought up that way.
