"Have a blessed day"
Got that at the supermarket today. Is that some sort of secret code?
All sorts of nastiness starts.

9. Or you could say
"Have a Coke and a smile and shut the **** up."

10. Here is the secret
code's decoder ring: "blessed" comes from the root meaning "bliss." Hence, you have the option of answering in kind, depending upon what your bliss may be. I tend to say, "And may you have an orgasm on this day."
Gross, keep sex out of your posts, you entire lot of repulsive worms.

24. When my husband got his flu and shingles shot, the Dr. said "have a blessed day"......
and I wish I would have responded, no thank you......but, I didn’t say anything. I do NOT like that phrase at all.

33. I hear it most days
I'm a lunch lady in a junior high. There is one girl who went to the elementary I also work at. Pretty much every day she wishes me a "blessed day". I take it to mean she is religious and is wishing me good things, so I am pleased and it makes me happy. Many of the junior high students tell me "thank you" when they bring their trays to be washed, but Amaya always wishes me a "blessed day" and I look forward to it. Many times if you look at the intention and not at the specific words, it's not offensive, can even be pleasant.
She was ignored. Amaya sounds like a POC name.
