People just seem lacking in being able to say thank you or you are welcome. They also seem reluctant to say 'sorry' or apology accepted.

i'm sorry in some parts of the world means "i intentionally did not something and it will never happen again.

and if something happens, then we are enemies and our families are feuding.

Great guess...

That's why the North feels superior (Imperialistic), and the South doesn't give a shit,
as long as they're making tons of cash.

An Imperialist with $5.00 USD can get a cup of tea at McDonald's, and the Southerner is the franchisee, making profit of that $0.05 cup of coffee. The political Imperialist can drink his coffee outside...

I though the “no problem” response is kind of a California thing. You don’t often hear it in the Midwest.

It’s a millennial thing. Since they are so self centered because
They never had to complete for anything when you try to communicate
With “thank you” the response is “no problem “ because to thank someone
You have to understand empathy and they don’t. When they say “no problem “
They are telling you how your thank you affected them.

I actually do say "no problem" and "no worries".

For me, helping was no big deal, really. Think nothing of it. Let's move on to the next chapter.

Some people can be very over the top saying "thank you."

I see “no problem” akin to a few of my Spanish speaking friends saying “de nada” when I thank them for helping me w something. It’s like theyre trying to downplay the difficulty/trouble the the favor/request you made of them by saying “it’s nothing, no problem, no trouble at all, no imposition at all, think nothing of it.”


I m one of the guilty ones who probably use no problem 90% of time when I should be using you’re welcome more often.

I'm one that's big on saying no problem. I've heard this complaint before so I try to make a conscious effort to say you're welcome.

It is rude to say something and expect a person to respond only with what you feel is polite or appropriate.

"No problem" or "no worries" or "glad to help" are fine and polite answers. If you were taught differently, sorry for your deficient upbringing.

Those answers reflect a more worldly and sophisticated person actually since they are more like other languages, cultures, and idiomatic sayings. "You are welcome" is truly a strange thing to say in response to thanks if you think about it.

People say thank you when they don’t mean it as complimentary. It has grown to mean I appreciate what you just said, and I am thinking about what I plan to do.
