"Be good"
just a variation on take care, see ya, later, etc.
This. I have a friend that says it. Means nothing.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
May I just say that I have the WORST cramps in recorded history. I have gobbled down 4 Ibuprofen and am hoping to feel better soon, or I shall have to crawl home from work, whimpering.
The rest of you, Be good.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Ugh, Robin.
Can your doc do anything for you?

The doctor said (whitefont for girly medical stuff: if I was 28, the big mean fibroid (which makes for the extra-bad cramping) would be dealt with surgically, but since I'm 48, and they shrink as menopause nears, they want to wait it out. I get that, as major surgery is alaways dangerous and this particular surgery sometimes hurts more than it helps due to scarring, but it ain't much comfort to me right this ouchy minute.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm sorry, Robin. Hope the drugs help.
I get irritated out of all proportion by those meaningless phrases people say - why should I take care? What do you know? I don't wanna be good. I'll have whatever kind of day I please, dammit.
When I was in college, a friend of mine had a party, and as he was seeing people off at the end of the night, he told each of them to "Drive fast, make a lot of lane changes, and if you see any cops, flip 'em off". Now that's a farewell that means something.

Well, even "farewell" is a shortened version of be safe or take care, so it isn't a NEW phenomenon. I guess the impulse when someone leaves is to wish them well in some way.
Although I tend to say "See ya" which is basically meaningless.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Our traditional (extended) family farewell involves the following phrases:
"Sorry you could make it!"
"Next time I'll go home sooner!"
"Well, it wasn't much fun, but the food was free!"
"Drive recklessly!"
We're a rather irreverent bunch, if you couldn't tell.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think all of those sayings are a way of saying, "I like you and hope to see you again." In a friendly way.
It's just social custom.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
On the way to work today there were a lot of fireman in their uniforms along the road doing a fund drive.
That was nice.
