0% chance

A definitive term used to describe a total, absolute, and fundamentally irreversible impossibility. Unlike "unlikely" (which implies a slim chance), this means the event is structurally, economically, or logically dead, buried, and is never to be seen again. The doors aren't just closed; they are finally welded shut.

Example 1:
Person A: "Do you think if Gap and Old Navy leave Times Square, they’ll rebuild the original Toys "R" Us flagship with the indoor Ferris wheel?"
Person B: "0% chance. Even if those stores leave, the space is just going to another corporate tenant. That era is dead."
Example 2:
Person A: "I'm still holding out hope that the MTA will realize OMNY was a mistake and bring back paper MetroCards."
Person B: "0% chance. They literally ripped the physical card readers out of the turnstiles. Just move on."

bricked

Derived from tech culture (when a smartphone or console updates badly and turns into a useless "brick"), it means something is unfixable and cannot be restarted, often to describe old systems or infrastructure that can never be turned back on.

“The underground pneumatic mail tubes are completely bricked under the city streets.”
