That's why you say Good Morning!
“Good Morning!" said Bilbo, and he meant it. The sun was shining, and the grass was very green. But Gandalf looked at him from under long bushy eyebrows that stuck out further than the brim of his shady hat.
"What
do you mean?" he said. "Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it
is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this
morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?"
"All of them at once," said Bilbo. "And a very fine morning for a pipe of tobacco out of doors, into the bargain.
...
"Good
morning!" he said at last. "We don't want any adventures here, thank
you! You might try over The Hill or across The Water." By this he meant
that the conversation was at an end.
"What a lot of things you do use
Good morning for!" said Gandalf. "Now you mean that you want to get rid
of me, and that it won't be good till I move off.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit. I haven't read the book or watch the movie, but I think it's pretty cool.
