    I live in the Bible Belt, so I always hear “hAvE a BlEsSeD dAy”. “Yeah, fuck you too”, is what I think, but I mostly say “you too”.

      I mean it is the Bible Belt, that’s just the local cultural greeting. You wouldn’t complain about the French greeting you in the french language either would you?

      I mean, these people know they’re just saying ‘fuck you’ in an acceptable way.

      Tell them ‘fuck you’, back.

      Just smile and say, ‘may Beelzebub grace you with wisdom!’ just as cheerily and earnestly as they do.

        Yeah there are a ton of deities/names you can rotate through “thanks, X bless you too”

        Baal, Beelzebub, mephistopheles, Sithrak, Satan, Lucifer, etc
