Merriam Webster out here fighting for its life
Merriam-Webster & @Merriam..•18h 
'Goodbye' is an alteration of "God be with you."

Sean Kress• @SKress7514 • 16h
Do you have evidence to back this up? If so can you explain what "good night" , "good
morning" and "good evening" are alterations of?

Merriam-Webster & @Merriam..•15h 
whatSean Kress & @SKress7514 • 14h
I was genuinely asking the question because the only thing I find on the internet is that it is basically a slur from the original.... I assumed there was a better explanation for it than that as it seems a little unlikely given the good night, good morning etc haven't been slurred into something else too. Sorry if you saw that as offensive.

Merriam-Webster @ @Merriam...•14h S
It is not related to 'good night/ day/morning.'
The 'good' in those do not come from 'God.'Sean Kress @ @SKress7514 • 14h
So the internet suggestion this it is just a slur is what you are basing that on too then?

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Merriam-Webster's etymology follows established linguistic scholarship, not unverified internet suggestions of a "slur."
"Goodbye" is an alteration of "God be with you"; "good" in greetings like "good morning" has separate origins unrelated to "God."

You shot him in the side of the head and you're wearing gloves. Place the gun in his hand and set the house ablaze. Officer Goger's tragic suicide will be the perfect cover story

Devil on my shoulder: Goger was always eating stuffing and spelt wheat and steel cut oats. Bet he'd taste reeeeal good on a spit with an apple in his mouth. Come on, i've seen the way you've looked at him..

In the United States there is no difference between a lawyer and an attorney. The terms are interchangeable and entirely and exclusively overlap. Just a reminder that this is one of those silly ideas that that get handed around on the internet by people thinking they're being clever. It's not.

CA’s legal determinations are applicable to someone who held herself out as general counsel to a company in CA. Seems to me you’re making things up and getting mad at people who tell you you’re wrong. I’d advise not doing that, it’s bad for your health.

Licensed attorney here, that's not true. Having a JD just makes you a JD. There is no distinction between lawyer and attorney.

I think it probably depends on the exact context of the representation. If the person is holding themselves out as a lawyer and attempting to solicit clients, I think that'd probably be commercial speech that could be regulated.

Okay, that does not matter. A generalized statement on TV like that will basically never meet the standard of immanence. You might not like it, but that’s what the law is. He’d have to be standing next to someone in the process of filling out their ballot for it to be immanent.

Videogamep @videogamep.bsky.social · 13/10/2026
You’re missing the immanence. It has to essentially be likely to happen right now or immediate, not later today, or tomorrow, or next week. Basically any real distance negates it.

That’s the law as the Supreme Court said in Brandenburg v. Ohio. You seem to be arguing a lot based on what you feel like it should be, but that has no bearing on what the law actually is. It’s fine to disagree with the law, but what the law is and what you want it to be are different conversations.

Videogamep @videogamep.bsky.social · 13/10/2026
Whether he desired it to happen immediately or not doesn’t matter. The law is that the lawless action has to be immediate with no time for intervening speech/cooler heads to prevail. You might disagree, but that’s what the law is and has been since the 60s.

Videogamep @videogamep.bsky.social · 13/10/2026
Immanent would be he’s standing there while someone is filling out a ballot telling them to commit fraud. Pretty much anything short of that is protected speech.

Even assuming it was literal, generalized advocacy like that is protected speech. Unless it’s intended to and likely to cause immanent lawless action (and immanent is the key word) it’s protected.

"hard times make strong men" actually statistical error. Most hard times make starved peasants, who lack the capacity for successful use of force. Swiss Cantons Georg, who lives in a fortress and practices with a pike formation, is an outlier and should not have been counted.

look, if you're worried about being remembered, don't try to pursue immortality or whatever, the smart move is to start selling substandard copper and then make sure anyone who complains deposits a physical copy of that complaint in a site that will later be archaeologically significant

That's why plaintiffs' lawyers typically work on contingency. It lets the lawyers get paid while the plaintiffs don't have to put up all that money upfront.
