a golden way to say "no"

I have decided to share some of my time tested wisdom with the people of this forum. Years ago, a simple phrase entered my vocabulary, and it has revolutionized my life. Have you ever been put into a situation where saying "no" has proved difficult?

For example, how would you respond to these statements?

-"Will you mop the floor and take out the trash?"

-"Hey man, can you help me move this weekend?"

-"You parked in my parking spot you stupid dummy!"

-"Do you have a minute to talk about animal rights?"

-"Did you borrow my car last night?"

-"Do you want to do it in the butt?"

-"Have you had anything to drink tonight?"

-"Do I look fat in this dress?"

Along with other like phrases, instead of the cold response of a flat out "no", (or perhaps the correct answer would be yes but you are compelled to say no) try this:

"Nah, I'm just chillin"

My answers:

No

-"Hey man, can you help me move this weekend?"
You buy the beer

-"You parked in my parking spot you stupid dummy!"
Fug you, do something about it

-"Do you have a minute to talk about animal rights?"
Only if it involves recipes

-"Did you borrow my car last night?"
Ummmm, no?

-"Do you want to do it in the butt?"
Depends on who's pitching and who's catching

-"Have you had anything to drink tonight?"
Fug you, Cop. Go bother real criminals

-"Do I look fat in this dress?"

-"Will you mop the floor and take out the trash?"

Do I look like a woman to you?

-"Hey man, can you help me move this weekend?"

It isn't my fault you ballooned up to 700 lbs. I warned you that once you got too far you wouldn't be able to move.

-"You parked in my parking spot you stupid dummy!"

You talkin' to me?

-"Do you have a minute to talk about animal rights?"

No, I have an entire lifetime... however, I don't feel like talking about it... ever...

-"Did you borrow my car last night?"

If by car you mean your girlfriend, then yes.

-"Do you want to do it in the butt?"

What what?

-"Have you had anything to drink tonight?"

I've had a lot to drink tonight. Coke Zero is awesome.

-"Do I look fat in this dress?"

Why are you wearing a dress in the first place, bro?

yep

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
