Yes, In fact, "no u" was probably inspired by 「オマエモナー」

well, hai/iie are expressions of agreement and disagreement. If I say my shirt is not white, (but it is), then if you said, "iie, shiroi da" this would mean, "yes, it's white!" So, sometimes "iie" is yes, sometimes it's no, and that it really depends on context, and same for hai.

Iyada/yada, temae = no way/refusal, you (vulgar)/bastard. >>8
What >>9 said, but "ie" can also be used for "no", although "iie" is far more used.

Actually, I should've split up "iyada" and "yada" to "iya da" and "ya da". Sorry 'bout that.

There's a FOAF story about someone who was traveling to Japan, and they were talking about South Park, and one of them said "TIMMY!!!" like Timmy says it. Except, the way Timmy says it, it sounds like the Japanese word "temê", and thus the entire restaurant fell silent. He was told it was Japanese for "fuck you", though the truth is probably more complicated.
I don't watch a lot of anime so I've never heard it in context.
