Why do Americans say "uh-huh" instead of "you're welcome"???
>>
Do Americans actually do this? I was raised (and still live in) a small town where if you don't say "thank you" you're shunned for months by the many old ladies in the area.
>>
Americans are fake they smile at you all the time.

A sizeable portion my dude. Alot of people just don't like making it sound like a big deal t b h senpai.

>non-Americans are such cunts they can't imagine that someone would be friendly to others they don't know
>>
>>66473496
I thought 'uh huh' means "I'm listening you"
>>
>>66473688
It does. Whenever someone says "Thank you" and you say "uh huh" it can also mean "yeah, no problem"
>>
>>66473512
Hey now, I never smile at Mexicans.
>>
>not saying cheers

literally the GOAT of all thank yous
>>
>>66473825
when you make a toast you say "thank you"?
>>
>>66473825
>Cheers
You only say that when you bang your mug of beer with your buddies. Man Aussies are weirdos.
>>
>>66473496
Everyone says thank you, but "you're welcome" sounds condescending so no one uses it anymore

I prefer "no problem" or "sure"
>>
>>66473825
>cheers
You'd rag on us worse than if we said "bloody" or "mate".
>>
>>66473849
Its relatively common to say cheers instead of thanks here too

You're a cunt if you say "You're welcome"

Where I come from, Cheerios is a cereal.
>>
>>66474054
Not necessarily, but "no problem" is in my area becoming the most common response. "Uh huh" is too curt and dismissive.
>>
>>66474167
Yeah, most people say "no problem" here as well
