"Not Going to the Circus" tantrum 

A temper tantrum/meltdown of epic proportions. Usually caused by one not getting his or her way. This comes from the children's television show Caillou.
My grandmother threw a "Not Going to the Circus" tantrum because she was worried there was not enough money to gifts for everyone for Christmas. Also, my five year old great cousin had one because she couldn't buy the latest Barbie doll at Walmart.

Not going to slob his knob. 

Not going to entertain or pay too much attention to a man.
I know he is the prom king but that doesn’t impress me in any way, I’m not going to slob his knob.

Not going to work 

It'll be full credit or it will be child murder and there is no inbetween.
Hym "Not going to work. If I'm not getting credit it will be your kid's ass! Let me know. We can end it today. You figure out what you're going to tell the parents?

Not going to fly 

I mean... The only thing that IS going to fly there is literally progressive shit-lib politics and all I'm going to get from any of YOU is free money potentially-hypothetically-eventually if I do and believe what you want.
Hym "Juxtaposed to the delusional zealots claiming I HAVE to believe and say what they want! And to choose neither is to BE THE ROPE in a game of special needs tug of war. But saying that is probably 'not going to fly' either."

Not going to do it 

If you're crediting and paying my for my contributions...
Hym "Then, no, I'm not going to do it. YOU are literally the problem here. I told you this (what is happening to me) would be used as a means to steal my sucess or justify malfeasance... I was right. I don't have to allow that to happen. YOU do not have to allow that to happen BUUUUT it LOOKS LIKE... You are doing that... So, the surveillance and whoever's responsible for it or literally any random child. Not choosing the former IS choosing the latter. I'm not negotiating with you. This isn't happening in a vaccum. You are actively violating my rights. The sooner the breeders learn they are not more important than everyone the better things will be for everyone."
