What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.

If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:

French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.

I have a "fat pussy" and I'm super self cautions about it. Do guys think it's gross?

“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.

“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.

Which album is your favorite that's now 50 years old (from 1975), and what's the best song on the album?

“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
