You Can't!

Posh upper class English way of saying, You Cunt!

Oh no you caaaant! The upper class lengthen their A sound.
Female horse rider shouted it out to me as I slowed my lorry as I passed and the air brakes hissed. She shouted it out just as her horse bolted.
And for a moment, puzzled, I thought why did she shout out 'You Can't!'

You can't teach that!

A phrase used by an overbearing, nonathletic parent to brag about the sporting prowess of his/her son or daughter in a particular sport. In most cases, the child is more coordinated than his/her parent ever dreamed of being.

"I clocked him at 35 mph and he is only six, You can't teach that!"

"You should see the look in his eye when he is on the mound, You can't teach that!"

"I know he is only 6 but MY GOD he plays with 8 year olds, You can't teach that!"

You can't write it

1. Regarding a ridiculous situation which could not have been predicted or written beforehand.
2. Regarding a ridiculous situation which could not be written about afterwards.

It could be so ridiculous or outrageous both apply.

Synonymous with "you can't make this stuff up".

1. Stephen: "Oh shit, did you hear how Ian got three fit girls pregnant in one night? Two of them already had boyfriends! Who would have thought, you can't write it!"

2. Scott: "So I was refused alcohol the other day, and I ended up with my evening ruined, immediately back home. I mean, you can't WRITE it, you can't even write it.. I've had enough, I've enough of this. That's it. That's it lads! Naaaaah, that's it! I'm going to bed! I am GOING to bed!"
