A sarcastic thank you to someone who has wronged you. The expression dates to an early 2000's Star Wars related "Thank You George" campaign was started on the internet and quickly spread through science fiction fandom. The campaign centered around a web site that sold "Thank You George" t-shirts and merchandise. The web site turned out to be registered to a game company called Decipher, who had produced a highly successful Star Wars collectible card game between 1995 and 2001, only to have Lucasfilm pull the license in favor of Hasbro toys, who produced a new card game that failed. The campaign seemed to have been started by Decipher as a way to profit from Star Wars without having to pay licensing, and a way to give George Lucas a sarcastic "thank you" after he killed Decipher's product in favor of Hasbro's product that failed.

When used with a screenname, a good way to point out a probable troll. Especially useful in a long comment war, when you can see that people are taking things way more seriously than they were probably intended.
