This is the first time I've heard of this. I have to admit that I say "no problem" more often than I say "you're welcome". I almost feel as though 'you're welcome' comes across as more formal, although I personally would not feel upset to hear either one. One a somewhat related note, at one of my old workplaces, we weren't told anything about saying no problem, but we were told not to address customers by pet names (sweetheart, honey, etc). This is something that mildly irritates my mom, but I've never been bothered by it when out and about.

You’re welcome does seem more formal which is probably one reason they would rather you say that instead. I think they were just trying to get people not to be negative when interacting with customers.
Yes we also aren’t supposed to use pet names for customers but I do know of one person who still does . That’s just the way this person talks to everyone.

Regarding the discussion between no problem/you're welcome, I actually say "you're welcome" more often than "no problem," but just because it's been ingrained into me since I was a kid that it's the more polite thing to say. I don't really have a problem with people who say "no problem" though.

Yea I was also always told you're welcome is a more polite way. So I usually just say
you're welcome but occasionally will say no problem.
 
i just thought about how new york city is such a densely populated area there must be 100s of wifi networks and personal hotspots in one region so it must be impossible to find your own network.

I'm sorry, WHAT????????????
I loved the first book and now I'm looking to buy the next one.

What in the world happened here?! I don't want the Kindle version, this has to be a cruel sick joke.
 
If we want to get REALLY super that word about things, my family is trying to correct me now from saying "yeah" all the time in response to things. They told me it's especially not the best to say at my workplace, but like... who cares? If I don't have a thought-out response to say to you, and I'm pretty much just acknowledging or agreeing with what you said, I'm going to say "yeah." And it's such an easy word that to have to think about something else to say EVERY TIME would drive me insane. It would drive anyone insane, lol.

I had a friend awhile ago now that got upset or irritated when I didn't type out well thought-out, long responses to what they had to say (I'm no longer friends with said person). Like lol, what are you expecting of me??? I'm not a top Harvard graduate doctor scientist dude, cut me a little slack.

TL;DR the English language is always changing anyway with regards to what words mean and what people say, so honestly who cares lol. Just don't say anything that you KNOW is offensive to someone and you're good.
 
Idk if anyone else had seen this show, BUT personally, the most memorable episode of “Tales from the Crypt” is the one where this child psychologist goes to a lady’s house, and finds out her creepy daughter was a zombie. My description doesn’t do it justice; the suspense of the episode is what makes it special.
 
watching how Sam and Diane's relationship evolves over the course of Cheers is actually insufferable lol, I'd rather watch the version of the show with Kirstie Alley. or better yet, I'd rather watch Frasier.

I wish Google Docs had a feature that's similar to the spoilers on TBT. I use it to keep track of all the albums I've listened to, and shortening the them with spoilers would save the pain of scrolling past all the long-ass lists. :v

A few months after I made this post, and I discover a feature similar to this - Using the 'heading' style puts a dropdown on lists you make. :0 This definitely makes my life easier.

Also, it feels nice being able to drink coffee again. (❁´◡`❁)
 
I walked by a pub that was absolutely heaving on my way home. It just made me think damn, I can't wait for warm weather and beer gardens to open up again. 🍻
 
Why is there a Lilo and Stitch live-action remake?? Everyone was upset about how Pleakley lost his crossdressing pizzazz (I am, too) but am also disappointed that they appear human. Also, if they’re gonna make Jumba human, they need a proper big boy for the role….🐻😍
 
One time at school, someone asked me, "you tired?" I almost got mad because I misheard it as the r-slur... (I didn't say anything to them though.) I feel like I hear so much cursing nowadays that I end up hallucinating it more often. 😭

I feel you, I'm dealing with something similar where my parents want me to say "yes, mom" or "yes, dad" instead of "yeah." I don't think there's anything wrong with speaking formally though, especially when it's really necessary in some environments, but this is getting annoying already lol. ^^;
 
I’m looking at Magic the Gathering artwork since I’m looking for some references for inspiration on making my own character; I almost forgot how incredibly their art is. I stopped collecting years ago, but I still really love the artwork. I love all the different art styles. One of my favorite artists was Rebecca Guay and this card

. I honestly miss collecting the cards (I still have to finish organizing my collection) and playing was fun but was hard and embarrassing to play because I have dyscalculia and would often forget a lot while playing. A lot of the rules and calculating damage was also confusing.

Their support on the site was weird. I saw they had a rule about using images and so i asked if i could share pictures on the small blog feature they had of my cards or something and they said no, but you see people taking pictures and sharing their cards all the time not to mention doing photo edits and fan art. so even now I still have no idea what they meant.
 
The move Bide.....really isn't so bad! Especially if you have Eviolite attached to your good boy or girl, such as my Goomy, Watermelon, who clutched it in a battle with just 1 HP left, then.... WHAM!! Hit the opponent for tons of damage.
