It's funny, the first time I heard this, I thought it was a really neat thing to say. It's like wishing somebody a good day, weekend, evening, whatever, not worrying too much about the specifics. The kind of laziness that seems more sincere.

Now it's become just another greeting, part of our business culture. The fact that it's probably in some ESL textbook kind of kills the intent. Probably a sign that I'm getting old.

Anybody know what the young people are saying to each other nowadays? Aside from racist, homophobic slurs, I mean.
