(Redirected from Godspeed)

For those living in an alternative reality, Conservapedia has an "article" about Godspeed

Godspeed is a form of salutation, typically meaning "Good Luck" or "Safe Journey". However, when a Conservative says Godspeed to a Liberal, it is generally believed to roughly translate into "Go Fuck Yourself". In some cases, the transmitted meaning seems to be more along the lines of "I acknowledge your existence, peon. Now go contribute more." There is a 98.7459964% chance that the above statements are true.
