The standard responses to thank you almost all share the same prosody, alternating between non-stressed and stressed syllables, opening on a non-stressed. This arguably creates the perlocutionary force that reciprocates the expression of thankfulness which IIRC typically opens on a stressed syllable.

So w/e.
augh gently caress you now that you point this out it sounds so stupid but I can't stop doing it that way

when people respond to "hi how are you?" With anything other than " not bad, you?" it's like, what the gently caress are you doing?! That's not how this works!
i always say great or good and don't ask how the other person is doing

The worst is when a stranger greets you with "Smile." or any variation on that. I just immediately start having murder fantasies about the person.
hm. i've never had anyone do this to me and I am glad for it

e: the "smile" thing I mean. I'm sure i've inspired a number of murder fantasies
