3:19:38You don't actually need to say it back
3:19:39you gotta learn to recognize when thats happening and just bail
3:19:40makes it sound like you were really mulling it over
3:19:46just be you and don't overthink it
3:19:48I can guarantee you they forgot about that 5 seconds later
3:19:48just embrace it and do the finger guns with the you too
3:19:51:backhand_index_pointing_right::backhand_index_pointing_left: uh.. you too..
3:19:55That’s actual a psychological condition called Pipkin

3:20:15Sidewalk shuffle but in convo
3:20:17I guarantee you're not the most awkward person the cashier or service worker interacts with that day
3:20:21thats when you say both regardless

3:20:29the crazy part is it doesn't really matter
3:20:31If you say thanks then you get an extra second to respond
3:20:38You gotta choose the right option to increase their affetin points
3:20:42take the minimal approach. no conversations, say thanks for receiving something, leave.
3:20:44Reciprocation gets dicey in parting
