  • Describe No, You here. The act of replying to an insult by simply saying "No, you!" or something similar, meaning that said insult applied more to the person giving it than the person receiving it. Omnipresent in schools, especially middle to high schools. On the internet (where it's invariably written as "NO U" and frequently accompanied by an Image Macro of an Asian man pointing and shouting), it is used as a sarcastic way of pointing out that a Troll's comments apply more to himself and is therefore a Hypocrite and idiot (i.e. to troll trolls). It may also be done by people who particularly don't care for the person's attempt in riling them up and use "NO U" as a sarcastic retort to the taunting. Similar comebacks: * "I know you are, but what am I?" * The childhood classic, "I'm rubber, you're glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you!" * "You are the one who is X!" and its variant, "It is you who is X!" * "Your Mom/Your face/Your ass is X!"
