"Thank you".
Posted by LuchAAA on Tue Aug 13 13:12:10 2019 Dennis Prager said "Thank you" to someone.person said "No problem". Prager wants to know why "You're welcome" is dying.

The other day, a thirtysomething told my (fiftysomething) editor at one of the platforms I write for, that she couldn't make deadline "because it interfered with her self-care time". She said this without the slightest hint of irony. The kicker? Mr. Editor bought it, and reassigned the piece! Sauve qui peut!

If so, he may not be assigning her as much work in the future. Doesn't she know about grandparents' funerals? One can have four over the course of employment at a company. (I once did hear someone repeat a comment that a particular fellow employee was running out of grandparents.)

That's the tip of the iceberg for errors like that. Another one is "to" and "too".

His exquisite command of the English language makes the book a worthy read for the prose alone. I'm so pleased he chose to name his fictional destroyer after me. LOL!
