Could be an option..

A turn of phrase best used when a random or casual acquaintance invites you to do something you have no intention of actually doing..

A noncommittal and inoffensive way to say no to something you don’t want to do..

Random: Hey bro you should all come over to my house for drinks..

Me: Yeah thanks dude, could be an option..

Annoying colleague: Hey we should definitely go and catch a movie some time..

Me: Yeah that sounds great, could be an option..

option select

1. A fighting game term; it's inputting in multiple commands/moves in order to cover various bases.

2. Outside of fighting game terms, it means to cover your own ass, or to provide an excuse.

1. I almost forgot the option select there; luckily he choked on the combo.

2. Don't option select by saying that your controller is shit; we both know you just suck at fighting games.

Don't pull a chuck.

taking the option

When you have an obligation to be somewhere, but decide you would rather not and go do something else instead, like go hang out with friends or go home and sleep. This alternate action is almost certainly frowned upon by the coach/authority figure and by those who are truly committed to the activity.

"Going to football today?"
"No man. I'm taking the option and going to dairy Queen instead. Wanna come?"

"No one is here today? What the hell?"
"Everyone took the option instead."
"Well that's lame."
