no comment

phrase

  1. idiomatic An official refusal to relay any further information, used for example in response to a question by a newspaper reporter or police officer. The district attorney said, "No comment," when the reporter asked if he knew the identity of the murder suspect, for fear that the culprit might be a flight risk.
  2. idiomatic, sarcastic A refusal to make the obvious impolite retort. Wrex: And Shepard--I like what you've done with the Normandy. Got tired of always hanging around the cargo bay before. Wrex: I still don't have a window like Liara does... but maybe that's because I don't kiss as well. [laughter] Shepard: No comment. Wrex: Yeah [laughter]... I missed this place.
