Funny ways to say have a nice day

"Have a nice day" is friendly, but it is said so often it barely registers. Here are 15 funny ways to say have a nice day, for texts and friends, a few dramatic declarations, mock-official ones from the Department of Doubt, and simple friendly ones that always work.

For texts and friends

• "Have a nice day. If it is not nice, please return it and I will send a better one." Satisfaction guaranteed, sort of.
• "Have a day so nice you tell people about it later." Story-worthy.
• "Wishing you a day with no surprise meetings and at least one surprise compliment." The good kind of surprise.
• "Have a nice day, and if anyone asks, it was my idea." Taking credit in advance.

Dramatic declarations

• "I have ordered you one nice day, extra nice, with a side of good news." Delivery any minute.
• "May every traffic light turn green the moment you arrive." A small, perfect luxury.
• "Have a day so smooth that every lift arrives the moment you press the button." Unheard of, but possible.
• "Go forth and have a nice day. That is the whole quest." Short quest. Big reward.

Mock official

• "The Department of Doubt was asked whether your day could go badly. It did not think so." For once, doubt is on your side.
• "Notice: today has been pre-approved as nice. Please enjoy it in the usual way." Sounds like a form. Reads like a wave.
• "Form 141 confirms that your day has been checked, polished and declared nice." Polished twice. Very official.

Simple and kind

• "Have a nice day." Always works.
• "Have a great one." Short and friendly.
• "Hope today is a good one." Warm and plain.
• "Hope the rest of your day goes well." Good for work too.

Keep it light

1. Make it specific. If you know what their day holds, wish them luck with that one thing.
2. Keep it short. A day wish is a send-off, not a speech. One line is plenty.
3. Go simple at work. In an email, "Have a great day" is all you need.
