No Sorry, Be on Time 

When being late has become such a bad habit or perpetual sin among lots of selfish people that it is easier to apologize for making everybody wait for them than make the effort to being on time.
Saying sorry is conveniently easy and seldom comes with a penalty, but planning their time to be punctual is pretty hard for an unhealthy number of folksβ€”for them, β€œno sorry, be on time” sounds like Greek to them.

No, Sorry 

When you say you don't have anything to begin with. Or when you are unable to help out even if you were to try your very hardest.
Person 1: Do you sell drugs?

Person 2: No, Sorry.

Person 1: *comprehends person 2 never sold drugs to begin with*

Person 1: So you are also saying that you never sold drugs to begin with? Correct?

Person 2: Yes, that's what I meant by No Sorry. Plus I can't help even if I really wanted to.
