A theatrical 'absolutely not.' You say it when something's trying it — drama, temptation, your own bad luck — and you're shutting it down with a finger-wag and zero patience. It frames whatever's bothering you as the devil himself, which makes the rejection that much more fun. Camp, defiant, quotable.

Origin & Usage
Older than Drag Race — rooted in the biblical 'get behind me, Satan' and popularised by Aunt Esther on the 70s sitcom Sanford and Son. But Bianca Del Rio cemented it as a drag catchphrase on RuPaul's Drag Race season 6 (2014), later naming her stand-up tour after it.
