Ni how are you?

A typical greeting between Chinese Americans, used as a combination of the Chinese: "Ni hao" and the English: "How are you?" Its a way for the Chinese Americans, also known by the Chinese as bananas, white on the inside and yellow on the outside, to celebrate both their asian and western heritage.
When a Chinese American ask a fellow Chinese American the age old question "Ni how are you? Would you like some dumplings?" They always expect them to reply: "Ni how are you yourself? Im good, and dumplings sounds terrific! Happy year of the unicorn!"

No matter how you slice it

It means no matter how you interpret or express something, it will still result in the same outcome. Moreover, the truth of a statement is not changed or affected by the way a situation is thought about or described. It’s a foregone statement.

Also “any way you slice it”.
No matter how you slice it, dogs are a man’s best friend.
