naff off
Leave me alone
Naff off is a British expression telling someone to go away, a mild substitute for "fuck off." It carries the dismissive force of the stronger phrase without the vulgarity: Oh, naff off, will you?
The term gained wider recognition when Princess Anne reportedly used it with photographers in 1982.
