"No problem" is a negative way to say that no thanks is needed. It's meant to convey "you're welcome" but has become a lazy, negative catchphrase. Buellrider 10:28, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

- We really ought to get back to how things used to be, when language was just "ugg", "ook", "eek", and "erggh", before uncouth young hellions started innovating things like "words", "grammar" and "recursion." —Quintucket (talk) 00:09, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
- Why is it "negative"? I've usually heard it said in a friendly way. Equinox ◑ 00:26, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
