Saying "peace" as goodbye
Ever since my sons have had cell phones they say "peace" where I would say goodbye. So a phone conversation goes like this:
Me: blah blah blah Son: Blah Me: Blah blah Son: Blah Me: OK bye Son: Peace Is this a common goodbye phrase? |

Silas: Peace.
Bart: Peace is meant to explain a state of tranquility. Ok? So why don't you try finding a way to say goodbye, now that you're among civilized people. Silas: Well, Mr. Civilized, peace can also be used interjectionally, as a request, greeting or farewell. |

Re: Saying "peace" as goodbye
I usually say "peace" when ending a phone conversation with my friends. I don't use it when on the phone w/ my wife, kids, or my parents though.

Re: Saying "peace" as goodbye
I have never heard this since the hippy days.
I think of "peace" as the absence of threat. Related to "bliss" and usually associated with ignorance. |

Re: Saying "peace" as goodbye
I have heard many people use "Peace" asa a way of ending a phone conversation, but I never have. I do say "Later" quite a bit on the phone. Now if I am leaving a someone's house I might say "Peace out B!tches".

Re: Saying "peace" as goodbye
My oldest daughter (now 29) has always said:
"Peace, Out". when saying bye on the phone. Me? If I like you I'll say "Bye"... If not, I'll just hang up. |

In honor of Boondock Saints I typically say "catch you on the flip side".
