Great video!

All of the crimes outlined in the video are common, annoying, and clear except one: "well" vs "good". Even in the video, the "correct" usage is ambiguous.

IME people who care about grammar use (and correct others regarding) "I am well", but when I diagram the sentence, it seems like "I am good" is actually correct.

I'd really like to know the right usage, and what Weird Al intended here. It's funny, because all the other examples are really explicit.
