Meaning "Sorry to bother you"

a sarcastic remark when you ask somebody to do something for you when you need a favor and they are too busy or to stupid to realize you are really needing their help. Stating that THEIR problems are far more important than yours and don't want to be inconvenienced.
For example, let's say you are filling out an application somewhere and you need a pen and you ask one of the clerks to barrow a pen and they reply back "Sorry, i don't wear pins" - "STBY...."

OR

"Hey mom, i need to be dropped off at school early, do you care to take me to school about 15 minutes early?"
and she responds "No, i have to walk the dog during that time." "..... STBY"

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
