Get the Now now mug.
A phrase commonly used in northern England, it derives from Old Yorkshire dialect.

It is a phrase used for greeting, although it is laregely unknown as to why the terms "now" (meaning this instant) and "then" (meaning in the past) were put together to form another way of simply saying "hello".

Usually pronounced "Nah-then".

Get the now mug.
previously known as "ignored" in facebook, it is the act of putting a friend request on hold Forever, the debate is still going on about it's conjugation :
some say it should be in the past tense because the "Not Now" was pressed Back Then, others argue that it is still on hold so it's still going on, normal people say it's not a friggin verb !

it's useful against stalkers & people who don't get it after the first ignore, a bit harsh for the friend request sender.

the only way to bypass it is to cancel the request & send again...& again...& again till you get blocked !
