Colasante Salutation

Invented by the renowned social architect John Colasante, author of the Colasante Protocol (also on Urbandictionary.com), the Colasante Salutation (aka Okbye) is a way of expeditiously ending any call. as such it's a perfect bookend to the Colasante Protocol, which is about starting a call. This has especially become important since the pandemic, where it seems nobody seems to know how to say goodbye without dragging it out anymore.

The Colasante Salutation is quite simple: as soon as the conversation runs out of steam, you immediately say "Okbye", your partner reciprocates, and you both immediately hang up.
