Interesting. I’ve heard that phrase but didn’t know that’s what it meant. Like you said, I still feel like they should have reiterated. But knowing there’s something in there that counts as thank you makes it less egregious now, I suppose.
Yeah, in this case it’s essentially overly short slang for basically saying “Your a real friend (for doing this).” It could also be used to sort of certify someone in regards to belonging to a group or demographic, but it’s fairly flexible.
