Danann Hawes's definitions

Thanks, Bye

The term can also be used to indicate extreme decisiveness or self-confidence. In this sense it is not antagonistic, but rather a way of injecting a greater sense of assertiveness and urgency into a statement.

Waiter: "What can I get you?"
You: "I'm gonna have the steak tartar and frites, thanks, bye'"
