A fork of Rural Dictionary
NCNC, or NC, NC stands for "no cross, no crown". Beyond the full saying used as a lesson on christian discipleship (To inherit the throne, you must be the descendant of a king. In our case, that means we must be born again. While we were once paupers, we're now the children of the King of Kings.), the acronym for the maxim, can be used to simply remind someone that no good thing comes without struggle.
"The work for this project is too much, I think we should cut some corners to make our lives easier, even though the quality of the final result will suffer as a consequence"
"You said it yourself bro; NC NC."
