Thank You For Sharing

A non-committal (on the surface) response to a statement the phrase user finds, unconventional, unacceptable, heretical or bizarre. The undercurrent or true meaning is often fuck you, and the purpose is always to denigrate or dismiss what was said.

This phrase is often used in meetings and among members of 12-step groups, especially Alcoholics Anonymous, but appears to have wider usage (see entry in The Free Dictionary).

Usage is similar to Thank you for the flowers.

AA meeting discussion leader: "Thank you for sharing. Who else has something to share?"
