You probably write e-mail messages every
day and the occasional letter. And you’re probably tired of the saying the usual trite and worn
“Take care” or “Talk to you later” or “Regards”. We can do
better than that, so.......this website may help you find just the right expression. Here you'll find imaginative, silly, sincere, authentic, subtle,
creative, pathetic, devious, genuine, eyebrow-raising and absurd ways to say sayonara.
There are three categories:
- Straight Talk (on this page): includes standard greetings and some cute or funny stuff.
- With a Twist: includes the silly, ridiculous, or just plain nuts.
- On the Edgy Side: Sometimes a little over-the-top, some include profanity and sexual references. However, it's all meant to be in good fun, and every effort is made to exclude entries that are derogatory or insulting.
After you're done reading, please send me a message or leave a blog entry!
May your e-mails never be dull again......
Straight Talk
This section includes standard greetings and humorous variations that wouldn’t really be considered jokes. For the funny stuff, go to “With a twist”.
