"NOT!"
"Wazuuup?!"


Wrong post. This should be in a new thread "These phrases should never have existed". Good God I hate those two. Exponents of a terrible decade.

"If you'd be so kind..."
Or the variant, "If you'd be so inclined..."

I like those.

You're welcome.
--------------------------
Exactly. I've noticed this all the time on morning news shows and CNN, etc.
The interviewer will say: "Thank you for being on the show" and the one being interviewed will say: "Thank you" in return.

I guess the "in thing" to do these days is thank the person for thanking you instead of just saying "You're welcome".



I think the one being interviewed is saying "Thank You" as a shorthand way of saying "Thank you for having me on your show." I often hear the exchange go "Thank you for coming" and "Thank you for having me."

"Let's run it up the flagpole and see who salutes it."

"You could knock me over with a feather."

"Why, I oughta ..."

"Let's run it up the flagpole and see who salutes it."

I only learned of this phrase recently. It's also the title of a 1970s STEVE CANYON book:
