Quick!

In an industry mag, an ad for a new type of CT scanner reads:

After his VCT scan, Alan was spared hearing the words he dreaded most: "We're not sure."

What words do you dread hearing most? I'm not certain what mine would be, but I would say "I'm going to disembowel you slowly with this rusty, blunt fishing knife" would probably rank higher than "we're not sure".

Comments:
Context plays an important role. I can think of a few cases where hearing "oops" is quite unsettling.
