  Yeah, inverse thank you.

    That would mean that when normal people have close to zero gratitude, your gratitude would tend to infinity.

    This is the kind of guy who always thanks the bus driver.

      But what if a normal person is slightly ungrateful about something?

    Wouldn’t inverse thank you be “welcome?”

    Pronouns welcome!

      From an algebraic perspective, it would be whatever “undoes” a thank you.

      From a logic perspective, it would be something that is the complement of a thank you, and contradicts a thank you given ty ∧ ¬ty or is a tautology when ty ∨ ¬ty.

      “Welcome” doesn’t seem to quite fit for either of those cases. “Not thank you” does indeed seem closer.
