Is now a noun or is it not a noun? Is not a noun? Are now and not both nouns or not? Is not not a noun?

And when you say now, when exactly are you talking about? I've been waiting a while and I think I might be starting to lose hope. I was thinking of going to a club but I'll probably just stand around there and then just come right back home or something.

Now is an adverb.
Not is an adverb.
Adverb is a noun.

So if now and not are adverbs and adverb is a noun does that make now and not nouns?

Go to the club. If you are going to feel bad anyway you might as well feel bad like an unloved, cast out, bad feeling person.

when in doubt, it's an adverb.
The other are obvious to figure out so only adverbs are left out.

A noun names a thing. A verb names an action. A adjective describes a thing. An adverb describes an action. 'Now', like a lot of short words with many uses ('f**k is another), is an adjective, an adverb, and a noun. 'Not' is an adverb (when it negates a verb, i.e. "I'm not doing that!"), and also a conjunction and a noun. Very useful, those short words.

You gotta get with the now. If the haves team up with the nots we can start a have not revolution.
