Let's talk about Mali's biggest pet peeve. I hate when people say no problem when you say thank you to them. It really makes me upset with them in general. I know it's just because of how I interpret conversation. When I hear 'No problem' it immediately implies, to me, that had the thing you are thanking them for been a problem they would just not have assisted you. I also always respond the same way when I am thanked. I close my eyes, incline my head slightly in an almost bow and say, "You're welcome." or, if I really don't feel I should be thanked, "It was my pleasure." I always graciously and formally accept thanks because I don't feel it's my choice if I should be thanked but the choice of the person who is thanking me...
I also have a problem with people reading into what I say, if I say, "I don't like this." It doesn't mean that I dislike it, it means that I do not yet like it. I am neutral... And let's not even get into when I say no to someone and they act like it's a debate. I hate when a succinct answer is argued with...
Good god, I'm a GIANT bitch.
