A word much cooler than negative. When something is wrong or when your answer is simply no. Or if you are one of those badass airplane piolets and you are about to crash.
"Hey Bri you are lookin' sexy. Do you want to go to Prom with me?"
"Uhm that would definately be a negatory."
"Uhm that would definately be a negatory."
