A thought-terminating cliché used to quell any critical thinking that may be used to expose someone's immoral/irresponsible/sordid actions and behaviours.
While there are occasions where this phrase is justified, most often than not it's used unjustifiably.
JUSTIFIED USE:
"So are you two sleeping together??"
"I'm sorry but that's none of your business"
UNJUSTIFIED USE:
*father verbally abuses their children on the bus*
Bystander: Excuse me but you should really treat your kids better
Father: Mate that's none of your business! Piss off!
UNJUSTIFIED USE:
Person 1: You shouldn't be smoking here, it's a smoke-free zone
Person 2: None of your business man
