Me am not write post

I remember the first time I read a Superman comic with the Bizarro Superman character in it. I thought it was a pretty cool idea that everything in the Bizarro world was backwards. However, a question arose that has puzzled me ever since. Say, for instance, that in our world, you tell someone "Good morning". What would the Bizarro-world parallel be? "Good night" is just as much the opposite of that as "Bad morning". Or would you negate both aspects of the phrase and say "Bad night"? Or would the oppositeness occur in that someone else wished you a "Good morning" (or, possibly, any of the other alternatives)? I guess there must be a limit to how opposite something can be in Bizarro world, or at least it's only selective. I mean, he was Bizarro Superman, not Subman or anything like that.

Hey, come on, like you never wondered anything remotely like that. I'm just the only one who's brave enough to ask.
