sure

The WORST response to a "Yes" or "No" question.

The response you give when you don't 100% want to say "Yes" but also don't want to say "No". "Sure" is the answer you use when on the fence about something, but is not an acceptable response to Y/N questions.

Phil: Do you want to go to the movies?

Sarah: Sure

Phil: (pause) Is that a "Yes" or "No"?

Sarah: Sure, I will go to the movies.

Phil: But I asked if you WANTED to go to the movies.

Sarah: And I said sure.

Phil: (leaves)

Girl: Thats rude, so you don’t want to?

Sure

A comment/ statement made when an individual would like to imply sarcasm or a lack of interest towards something someone else says. Sure can be pronounced in a very high pitched manner and may be accompanied by sarcastic head nodding.

'Hey, do you want to come to the shops with me?'

sure

Often used sarcisticly, it origianally means "I agree".


When said quickly, it stays true to the origianal meaning. When elongated, it is often an indiction of sarcasm.

DUDE! you wanna crash the mall?

Non-sarcastic: Sure!


Sarcastic: sure....
