Language changes over time, and that's the new etiquette. Though No Problem tends to feel less compulsory to me and so I feel more genuine saying it. Enjoy the world as it changes, because it'll change just as much if you don't enjoy it
You’re welcome to use language however you want, regardless of what the algorithm decides.
I usually say "of course" or "absolutely" instead of "you're welcome" or "no problem."
I usually like to run away when someone says "thanks!"
I like a hearty "No, thank YOU!" and let the feedback loop begin.
Where I am from, saying thank you doesn't warrant a response. It's certainly something I heard when I took a trip to New York though.
Time to adopt a jaunty wink, finger guns, and a hearty "You got it, sport!" as the default response. What could possibly go wrong?
There’s also my press, “my pleasure,” or “glad I could help !” (If I mean it!)
i use it sarcastically in normal conversations with friends
i use it seriously when replying to my bosses in a corporate environment.
I use "you're welcome" in customer service, but nowhere else. It somehow always just sounds stilted and clumsy, even though it's something everyone else has said fine for years.
Otherwise I usually just say "of course", because I feel like it's the same sentiment but rolls off the tongue easier.
I think "you're welcome" is just too formal. I would say it to a customer, not my friend.
I don't care.
I'll give a barely imperceptable nod in return.
Anything more than that means you have inconvenienced me and I wish you nothing but Ill will for the rest of your life.
Fifteen years ago when I was traveling around California and Nevada, I was weirded out at how sales people responded to "thank you". They either said "yup", "ok", or stayed silent. I assumed it was a regional thing.
In central and eastern Canada, we say it.
