I have a new favorite word.
And my new favorite word is "Nope."
"Do you have any more Pandora clips?" Nope!
"Do you have this in any other colors?" Nope!
"Can you do any better on the price?" Nope!
"Are you going to be open tomorrow?" Nope!
When delivered with a smile and a cheary tone, Nope is delightful definitiveness personified. It says everything: We don't have exactly what you want, but you put us out of business, so if you don't like what we've got at 50% off, the door is over there and don't let it hit you in the fat ass on the way out.
"Are you reopening somewhere else?" Nope!
"Do you have anouther gallery?" Nope!
"Are you going to work in jewelry still?" And although this question still gets a Nope! it really deserves my next favorite phrase, the one i wish i could say:
"It's none of your fucking business."
