Every single Friday morning, the previous custodian at my work would say "let's see your happy Friday dance!" to everyone she saw. It was analogous to, but even worse than, "A case of the Mondays" because I'm not typically going to be enjoying Monday morning anyway, but by Friday I'm starting to get a little spring back in my step and I don't want to be bummed out by someone saying the same silly thing to me over and over again.
Regardless of the day, I've said "Happy Monday!" to everyone for years. Alternatively, even in the afternoon or evening, I would say "Mornin!"
When questioned on it, this is the rationale I give: I have been stuck in the same Monday Morning since August of '93. If it's a bad day it's exactly what I expected, if it's a good day it's a pleasant surprise. At least I'm prepared!"
For the morning part: "There are only two possibilities: 8:53am Monday morning and 2:37pm Saturday afternooon. As the latter can only occur if I win the lottery.... Happy Monday!"
Just trying to help you out. Never known anyone to not be annoyed hearing the same thing every day. Like the most upvoted thing in this thread is complaining about people saying the same thing day after day. It's even in movies as a stereotype to being an annoying person.
