goodbye waiter

A person who will publicly announce their intention to leave a place, whether it be in real life or on the internet, but will not actually leave until enough people have said 'bye' to them. Often, they will re-announce their intention of leaving multiple times.

"Man, Chris, is such a goodbye waiter. I don't know why he needs everyone in the place to acknowledge that he's leaving, he must be insecure about something."

Italian Goodbye

The act of leaving a social event with a prolonged goodbye, similar to Italian families, due to hugging each individual and spawning new topics of discussion in an endless cycle i.e. "Wait, before you leave let me show you what I've done to the lawn!", which leads to a discussion about how nobody ever helps you at Lowe's, which leads to something politically driven, which leads to Brad Pitt, which leads to a funny anecdote about how you all got really drunk last Cinco de Mayo, which leads to having another shot, which leads to watching a funny YouTube video you just thought of, which leads to how strange people are, which leads to "oh shit I have work tomorrow I really need to leave", which leads to another round of goodbye hugs, which leads to one more meatball for the road, which leads to "take some home with you", which leads to acid reflux, which leads to drug commercials...Etc.

Hunny I swear I was planning on leaving the party at 11, but once I finally said goodbye to everyone Steve brought up STAR WARS and I got stuck in an Italian Goodbye for the last 3 hours.

goodbye shot

The shot you know will cause you to black out. Therefore this will be last time you remember being with the people you are with and will see them again in the morning in order for them to fill you in on the details you don't remember.

"alright this is it, goodbye everyone, goodbye!"
"wait, you're already taking your goodbye shot?"
"yeah"
"okay! see you tomorrow!"
