Have a nice day.
Testing.
Have a nice day.
As if.
What about those that work during the night. They sleep during the day so your “Have a” is totally wasted on them. Once again, an underhanded cut against those with some sort of difference, in this case a different work schedule.
So, did wishing us a nice day work?
Thanks, the test worked just as expected.
… and I’m sorry that some of you are unhappy that I wished you to have a nice day.
Cite?

My day was nice, for what it’s worth.
It was a nice day. The 5 days before this were cloudy and cold. Today was quite nice in fact.
Recently heard variation in a super cheery voice… “Make it a nice day!!”
I really wanted to say, “Piss off”. I didn’t. I just smiled, nodded, and said, “Thanks!”
Hey! Don;t tell me wht kind of a day to have.
I know a friend who, as an elementary school counselor, starts off each day with a brief lesson over the PA on character, and ends with, “Have a nice day, or not: the choice is yours!”
On that basis, wishing people who sleep at night “goodnight” is also a waste.
I will, however, note that Dex’s post is timed at 03:52 BST which, I believe, is 21:52 in Chicago and 19:52 on the west coast. Frankly, this is a bit late to be wishing people a nice day, so in future I suggest he just says “goodnight” or “sweet dreams” or something similar.
Better still, in order not to specifically exclude people who live in different time zones (Turkmenistan, North Korea, Gloucestershire, etc.) maybe he should just say, “I love you all”.
Only if you restrict “day” to mean exclusively the hours of light. I think he meant it in the sense that a day is a 24 hour period through which both phases of daytime and nighttime occur. There, all the ambiguity is resolved since he didn’t say “have a nice daytime”. Thus, it wouldn’t necessarily require that his comment be restricted only to that period of time.
Shodan, how funny. =P
Dear lord. If there’s anything that would have people calling out “liar!” it would be an administrator saying he/she loves us all.
What he should have said at the end of the OP was “Now let’s play some football!” with this picture stuck in there somewhere.
I don’t believe that is a standard use of “Have a nice day” in the UK, as evidenced by my postman.
He actually says “Have a good day” but he says it in the morning when there is plenty of daytime remaining. I once met him on the street in the late afternoon and he didn’t say “Have a good day” or even “Have a good evening”. I have therefore formed the impression that while the postman wants me to enjoy the hours of daylight, he doesn’t give a shit what happens to me during the hours of darkness. (I keep meaning to speak to the Royal Mail about this.)
I think Dex should come back and explain exactly what the fuck he means by making controversial statements like “Have a nice day”.
Why not just Pit him?
Either I’m extra gullible in my current sleep deprived state, or you are taking this discussion far too seriously.
Considering some of your other posts (though CSDS could be mixing you up with someone else), I’m inclined to think it’s the latter.
Now let’s play some football damn it!
I believe you’ve been successfully hoodwinked (whooshed maybe?).
That is a very definate possibility. I’m going to sleep soon I swear.
