Those people would have a legitimate grievance if and only if syllable count were central to their argument. But this does not appear to be the case. Any article, or academic paper, which fails to account for this can be summarily dismissed.

 

Sometimes I say “cool, thanks” which is also 2 syllables

 

“Don’t mention it” is four syllables, so I’m twice as sincerely grateful as those who just mutter “Thank you”. Also I want them to be quiet, and stop mentioning it.

 

this old man once went off on my coworker because she said “no problem” instead of “you’re welcome”
he was such an asshole

 

I’ve heard stories of old people getting pissed off at the phrase “have a nice day” which is just insane to me

 

thanks,

 

I tried saying, “you are so very welcome!” (Lots of syllables there) but that just pissed people off more than not saying it.

 

like unless you say the n word or the f word or something like that I generally don't care what words people use, say um or like every 5 seconds it doesn't make you dumb

 

Haha yeah I’ve had people get upset at me for saying “no problem” and they’ll get all defensive and be like, “problem??? There’s no problem” with like these crazy eyes. People are psycho

 

Man y’all encounter some real weirdos lol

 

I don't think anyone has ever had a problem with the way I respond with any variation of thank you. If they did they never said anything lol

 

Let’s remember, sadly, that there are people out there who don’t like Toy Story. Toy Story! So if there’s people who dislike a movie as magnificent as that it does not surprise me in the least that people get pissed off by “no problem”, “no worries” / something other than “you’re welcome”.

I hate our species.

 

I don’t like Toy Story 3

 

Chants with clenched teeth and fists *never hit a dog, never hit a dog...*

;)

Kidding. I can see why people wouldn’t like the 3rd (or 2nd) but to me the first was just so mind blowing and original and exciting and wholesome awesomeness that I assumed that was a universal agreement item (Kind of like washing the clothes you buy at a store before wearing them - universal agreement no matter what else you believe or enjoy).

But there are people who don’t enjoy Toy Story which, sadly, makes anything possible. Such as getting made at how someone responds when they say thank you lol

 

I have a water filter that looks like it’s from a spacecraft. Did I show it to you? I’m out here sippin’ Rocket sauce baby boy.

 

Boom, emoji. 0 syllables. The ultimate disrespect.

inb4 "emoji is 3 syllables" don't even try it, dock rodent.

 

my wife gets upset when I say say "sure" as an answer lol

 

I just go the "Have a blessed day, route!" sometimes.

 

no problem forever

 

if i wasn't a guy i was gonna ask do you work with me because this happened to me literally last week!

 

Yawning and sneezing are the two most pleasurable physical sensations known to humankind.

 

What about c******?

 

My brain filled in that gap with a very unflattering word (thank you Australian genes)

 

I don’t see how cosplay is even in contention.

I’m not even sure it qualifies as a physical sensation to be honest.

A truly bizarre post all around, Mr. Serotonin.

 

Thank you, I mean that.
