A short phrase utilized primarily by highly intelligent and sophisticated human beings, especially those with two X chromosomes. Unlike the also popular "Can you not...", this unique phrase ends immedietely after "not" and may be phrased both as a question and as a statement. The speaker should assume that whomever he/she is conversing with is completely aware of the misdemeanor.
