I don't dwell on it, but it irritates me every time.
Somebody says "Thank you." The other person responds, "Thank YOU."
What the **** happened to just saying "You're welcome"?
Is this some kind of oneupmanship bull****?
Thank you for your attention.

I've noticed that also. Hardly anyone says it on air any more.

Your welcome

Vic, you need to get a boat. Clearly you don't have enough to keep
you busy. :-)

And BTW, you're welcome.

I wonder if no one says "Your welcome" because he walks around saying
"what the ****?"
