Reminds me of "thanks for the gold kind stranger!" Ughh.
But at the same time I don't get pissed or would hate them for it necessarily, I'd just think it's a little cringe and move on.
I've done that, but only because I thought I was supposed to lol. Since I saw a lot of people doing it at the time, and inferred it was being polite under the logic that you should usually thank someone for a "gift".
