Like tarsnap's --nuke command:

  --nuke  Delete all of the archives stored.  To protect against accidental
          data loss, tarsnap will ask you to type the text "No Tomorrow"
          when using the --nuke command.

Probably inspired by Vinum's "NO FUTURE" for destructive operations. (Vinum was a raid system used on older versions of FreeBSD.)
