Pet peeve: When people say "No problem" when they should say "You're welcome."

As in, "Thank you for wiping my butt." Reply: "No problem." No, say that the person is welcome to your help for wiping his butt. Helping can be a problem. To imply that it is not means that your help really wasn't worth much. Acknowledge that you had something to offer by offering the more appropriate response.

In all seriousness, I hear this all the time anymore. I myself am making an effort to avoid it. I am consciously using "you're welcome" more often.
