"Congrats want a cookie?" is such a dumb and cop out response to anything, amirite?

I prefer the "They don't make medals for that" response.

Lol my friend in his thirties uses that
by Anonymous2 years ago
I like "well pin a rose on your nose". Mostly cause it rhymes.
I don't use it very often. Only for certain people at specific times.

Sounds like an old one lol

What kind is what i ask
by Anonymous2 years ago
I haven't heard this phrase in 10 years. Where is it used now? Also does anyone like this phrase? Pretty sure it is popular to think it is dumb. Are there people who hear this and go, damn you are funny my accompishment is mediocre?
by Anonymous2 years ago
It's annoyingly prevalent where I'm from in the US midwest. I only really ever hear middle aged people say it
by Anonymous2 years ago
I just hear " well bless your heart"
by Anonymous2 years ago
LMAO that too
by Anonymous2 years ago
I'm a late twenties female from the Midwest and I say this phrase all the time 🤣

I mean sometimes it's really deserved. If someone told me they did hard work by passing 2nd grade math last year as a 20 year old damn straight I'm using that. If someone says they did something that's in the bare minimum of their job description it's also deserved. A cashier getting butthurt because I didn't congratulate them on giving me the correct change is 100% justified in me using that saying

>If someone says they did something that's in the bare minimum of their job description it's also deserved.
The absolute perfect example of proper usage for this right here.

A good way to not have to deal with people saying this to you is to to not brag.

Congrats want a cookie?
by Anonymous2 years ago
Yes actually, peanut butter if ya got ‘em.
by Anonymous2 years ago
It's a great response!
Someone comes up to you and tells you they actually did their job, like a child telling their mommy, heck yes I'm saying it! Its better then what ppl really want to say and not even remotely as cruel.
I'm not your manager, mom or partner and I don't have cookies, be prepared for disappointment.

Depends on the context. You could always say "ok" and not be rude. I don't know why you need to try to be a smartass if someone is giving you information that may or may not benefit you.
by Anonymous2 years ago
Yes exactly my point. Responding with "ok" or "cool" will get your point across and will more effectively shut them down since you're not giving them any attention at all with it.
by Anonymous2 years ago
Very true. I was referring to the situations where you're not their boss, not working in their area and they come up to you on your break just to interrupt your conversation to tell ya yet again.
Oddly specific, I know, but happens way too often.
by Anonymous2 years ago
For real lol. Why are you telling me? It's not my fault you didn't get enough attention as a child and need validation as an adult.
by Anonymous2 years ago
Right! Ty. You deserve the cookie, lol jk

I like your shoe laces.

by Anonymous2 years ago
there are definitely better ways to tell someone to stfu and can it when they brag Lol

Congrats, do you want a Blue Peter badge or something?
by Anonymous2 years ago
I had a stupid and petty teacher in HS who said that.
by Anonymous2 years ago
It's just supposed to be dismissive. Answer with "sure" next time and see what they say lmfao
by Anonymous2 years ago
I put this on the same page as anyone who says, "cool beans". The phrase was never cool
by Anonymous2 years ago
What do you want, a hero biscuit?
by Anonymous2 years ago
The best response to that is "Yeah that sounds great, let me get a chocolate chip"
by Anonymous2 years ago
I haven't used this since middle school 😂🤣 are other adults really using this 🤣
by Anonymous2 years ago
If you're offering the cookie then yes, I do.
by Anonymous2 years ago
That is such a condescending phrase. Just reading it made me want to crawl under a rock and not come out for a month 😂
by Anonymous2 years ago
Lol I love this phrase
by Anonymous2 years ago
I've mainly seen this type of response used when a lazy person does the bear minimum, and expects enormous gratitude/a pat on the back for it.
Like a kid thinking they deserve a reward from their family for cleaning their room.
by Anonymous2 years ago
some people make it their mission in life to be jerks
by Anonymous2 years ago
I'd love a cookie. Thanks!
by Anonymous2 years ago
Good job, take this participation ribbon.
by Anonymous2 years ago
Good opinion buddy, you want a cookie?
by Anonymous2 years ago
Congrats
Have a cookie
by Anonymous2 years ago
have a cookie
by Anonymous2 years ago
congrats want a cookie or brownie?
by Anonymous2 years ago
It's one of those overused phrases that a mental midget thinks is clever because the internet told them so. It's about as bad as "I was today years old when I learned..." or "tomorrow is not promised".
by Anonymous2 years ago
Most times people will say this to someone who's being pretentious or trying to brag about something. Maybe you'd benefit from doing a little self reflecting?
by Anonymous2 years ago
I haven't had it said to me since childhood. I've just been hearing it more than usual lately from conversations around me. Since I only heard it as a kid I connect it to being a very childish response. The best way to deal with an irritating pretentious person imo is to give them the bare minimum by saying nothing at all, a quick "mhm", or "cool"
