Can we stop saying "Happy Friday"? (discussion about pet names for days of the week)

Used to manage somebody that would sign off every single email with 'Happy insert day of the week!' Drove me absolutely bonkers.
I'll be damned. I had no idea what she was doing seven years later, but she seems to be doing fine, putting out albums and playing guitar on YouTube and stuff.
Dunkin Donuts did a promotion for their new "donut fries" a couple months ago and got her to sing "Fry-Day".

I'll admit that when people used to put this on at work, I chuckled.
I can't even broach the subject of the abomination that is "TGIF" without twitching a little tho.
While we're at why not stop with the "Good morning" or "Have a nice day/weekend" just grunt at me at the beginning and end of each day/conversation.
Have a blessed Friday, OP :P

I've become exceedingly tired of grown ass adults using the term "Sunday Funday" to excuse the fact that they want to get wasted on a Sunday and then complain when some people - you know, those of us that have to work the next day - aren't all into that mess.

There will be ONE happy friday in my life. The last friday I ever work, which when I get home that evening (as an older man), quietly walk past my wife, and my kids who came home to visit and surprising me with a cake for my last day of work, and head into the bedroom. There I will grab my alarm clock by the cord, and drag it out with me to the garage. There I will proceed to scream, smash, blow torch, plyer it into a pool of melted metal and plastic, dotted with pieces of plastic...then I'll go have some of that cake.
That will be some damn good cake.
That will be Happy Friday.

That will be Happy Friday.
I like my job, but I like the rest of my life more.
Also, I am capable of anticipating future events.
Happy Friday! Sorry to those who are so miserable that other people's harmless happiness somehow irritates them, but Happy Friday isn't going anywhere.

OP the kinda guy who gets triggered when he hears "god bless"
Just like you say Friday is just a day like any other, "happy Friday/Friyay/tgif"; they're just words. Let people experience happiness over something. If it happens to be the day before the weekend, so be it. Get a grip.
And happy Friday.

Sorry you can't enjoy it, OP, but for some of us it's as close to a holiday as we ever get...
Fiancee and I are taking out a friend for dinner who just broke up from a long term relationship.

God bless doesn't trigger.
I don't believe that saying "Happy Friday" makes anyone happy. We know its Friday and we're looking forward to 5pm too, but right now its still the slog.
Man, make a half serious thread and get told to "get a grip".
Era is probably the most serious place on the web.
Thanks for all the replies everyone, I've gotten a few IRL chuckles from this thread. :)
It's the start of my work week so mixed feelings but enjoy everyone else's excitement vicariously..
I do enjoy my Tuesday-Thursday more than anyone. I'll start with the Happy Tuesday's if it helps.

Possibly.... Did something bad just happen?
This works best after being told you have a new deadline at the end of the day.
I just always say if before teaching class on Fridays...as in "enjoy sitting here for an hour in a hot classroom learning about how young boys were castrated in the 17th and 18th centuries on the off-chance that they'd become famous opera singers."
She's an awesome gal, she'll definitely be fine. But italian food heals all wounds.
Props. You nailed that one. If I could use a emoji it would be 100.
As long as I hate my job, Friday will be happy.
Unless I know I'm doing job stuff over the weekend anyways. Then it's crappy.

To all who replied; I am extremely disappointed that no one responded with the classic "look at this morose motherfucker right here..."
C'mon Era, respect the classics.
I like my job.
Love my job actually. I just got promoted.
But you know what's better than the thing I enjoy being able to do but absolutely have to do for five days in a row? Doing what I want to do for two days in a row because of the money I make doing the other thing.
Happy Friyay, OP.
