I think "No, thanks" are two of the most powerful words in the english language.

I'm wondering what the last important thing you said "No, thanks" to was.

Care to share?

About an hour ago I said "No thanks" to the waitress offering me more tea.

About thirty minutes ago, I said "No thanks" to Bears advances.

According to him He hears "No thanks" a lot. Very Happy

Yes! It just happened actually: a friend called and asked if I would
agree to buy a joint gift for a birthday boy who is turning 4 tomorrow.
She had bought already something and wondered if I chip in. She meant well, but I said "No thanks" I'll buy my own present.

Squinney posting as bpb -- NO THANKS!!

heeheehee

I have a feeling I'll regret my latest "no thanks".

I've been carless for about a month. I am SO not into cars so I gave Mr. B a tiny little list of things I would like.

Ignoring all of these he came home with an older Mustang CONVERTABLE last night to show me.

Since I was a tiny girl I wanted a Mustang convertable.

But this one's roof was a little leaky. And I live in waterworld.

And I'm dying here saying "Unless they can stop the leak, no thanks".

<sob>

A slap in the belly with a wet fish.

It was a long time ago. All subsequent instances in which I've said, "No, thanks" are utterly insignficant in comparison.

Oh, if I coud go back in time...

Cool, was just feeling happy for exactly this reason!

Said "no thanks" to being president for this organization I've been volunteering for. I've had my fill of being president of volunteer organizations, but it's a cool group and I want to be part of it in a generally supportive way. Thought I wouldn't be able to get out of it for a bit there, then someone else nominated herself, whew. (And she'll be good, was happy to vote for her.)

My grandpa had a tghing he did with kids. He'd offer, "Can I get you a beer?" "No, thanks." "Bourbon?" "No thanks?" "Scotch?" "No thanks." "Brandy?" "No, thanks." "Slap in the belly with a wet fish?"

But I figured the image would stand on its own.

Last night the telephone rang. Would I like to donate to the Support Your Local Sheriff Organization.

I declined twice. First politely and then with a definite edge to my voice.
