The correct response to being thanked?

[FortVictoria]

I’ve always understood that the correct response to being thanked is “It’s my pleasure / It’s a pleasure”, “You’re welcome” or the more casual “No worries / No problem.” But more and more on television (mainly American shows, to be fair) I’ve heard “Of course”. I can’t work out what it’s supposed to mean. Any Americans on here who can help?

My family and other Americans say "you're Welcome" or "No problem"

Thanks, TinselTroels. Maybe it’s more a tv thing than a real life thing.

Never heard that one, either on tv or in real life.

I'm sure that there are a number of different 'correct' responses depending on the etiquette of whichever English-speaking country you happen to be from.

Never heard 'of course'.
The posh people I know say 'it's my pleasure'. 'You're welcome' is an American response rather than English I thought.

Have never heard ‘of course’ used in response-it doesn’t really make any sense.

Ooh I have! My American boss years ago used to say it. She did explain why eventually but I can't remember the answer now - off to Google.

Thanks, Puppylucky - I was beginning to think I was going mad!

Off course = no problem apparently

The only person I know who says of course is American

Thanks, Puppylucky. Makes a bit more sense now :)

To me (non-American so could be wrong), 'of course' implies, it's normal for the person to do whatever they have done.

I've only heard "of course" on Selling Sunset. I take it to mean "of course I would do that for you", ie no problem.

Was about to post this almost word for word

I've heard a few people respond with "It's ok" which makes me cringe.

"I love that dress on you"

"Oh thank you!"

"It's ok...."

Just doesn't work, does it?!
