It drives me nuts when people say "good" instead of "well?"

If someone says they're doing good, I respond with "are you saving lives?"

I might be an asshole . . . .

I use the word correctly but I can't see how it's such a big deal. I'm sure you also use slang that's not in the Dictionary..

Well thats good that well isnt good enough to be well enough for it to be good enough for you. Have a well day

Hope this post does good OP.

I agree with you. Spiderman does good, you are doing well. It's all about proper grammar.

How are you?

Guuuud.

No. Say well. Wweeeeelllll.

Good is an adjective. And how are you DOING? Well. Well is an adverb which describes doing.

It's well to have well grammar.

That's the thing...it's good to be able to have the freedom to express ourselves...we shouldn't put rules on so many things in life...

Bad news for you folks. Both "good" and "well" can be used as either adjective or adverb, look them up.

They certainly SOUND more correct in specific instances, but you're looking down on people when your own understanding is wrong.

Note: The only reason I know this myself is that it bugged me so much that I looked it up some years ago (and just verified again).

Cheers

I have to comment because, though I generally try to use all the proper words, I purposely say "Im good" just because I think "Im well" sounds pretentious.
I hate when people generally mispronounce words though..."EX-cape" and "EX'presso" just kill me. And my husband says "piture" instead of "picture".
I get you even though I say 'Im good".

Nobody gives a damn.

Ugh, sometimes my friend says good good. no kidding, like
"hey, how's it going?"
"good good"

It's like double the fuck.

As Weird Al recently pointed out, "doing good" is correct, it just means something different. See: "Word Crimes"
