I've heard the proper response is "And the rest of the day to yourself." I'm Irish and I have never NEVER EVER heard anyone say that except in films with ridiculously bad Irish stereotypes. Couldnt agree more with the last answer. It makes me cringe when ever I hear an American say that and put on a really bad Irish accentAnswerWhen you wish some one the "Top of the Morning" you are wishing them the best part of the morning. To which they should reply, "and the rest of the day to yourself." This is wishing you a good rest of the day.
