Okay, I'm in Vancouver, and almost everybody I know in VanCity goes down to the US every once in a while. One day, while sitting through a similar argument during my Social Studies class, my teacher said that he noticed that whenever he goes to the States, to buy, like, a hamburger at McDonalds or something, he says 'Thank you.', but the cashier always just nods and says 'Yuh-huh,'. Whenever he buys stuff from Canada, he says 'Thank you,' and the cashier actually says 'You're welcome.'.

Actually, the next time I went to Bellingham, I noticed that exact same thing. Everyone I bought stuff from, in a small town in Washington said 'Yuh-huh,', and everyone I bought stuff from in Vancouver said 'You're welcome.'

I'm not trying to say we're better or anything, but, I don't know, it was just interesting.

It just really pisses me off.
