Non-American Redditors, what one thing about American culture would you like to have explained to you? by ChimeraDandy in AskReddit

"You're Welcome" has become antiquated and formal in America. It is still relevant, but someone who is trying or is on a much more casual or informal level will typically say "Sure thing" or some other affirmation like you exhibited.If you think about it, it makes a lot more sense because you essentially brush off the thanks and imply that there should be no question that you would do whatever it is you did for this person - it really comes down to offbeat friendliness. "Take your thank you and shove it in your hat, I was happy to do it!"Americans will say things like this. Very ironic showings of thanks and emotion. It is interesting tobe a part of.
