Secondly - timing.

One does not dismiss without precise dramatic momentum.

Things to consider:

1. Will the dismissal unquestioningly terminate a thread?
2. Will it have the effect of a very hard e-slap?
3. Will it leave the other character experiencing an odd cocktail of endless frustration, rage, and underlining awe that, maaaaaaaaaaaaan, that guy is a bitch, but he is so coooooool?

As I have demonstrated, one does not dismiss casually.

It's all right, Cella. With proper guidance and substantial training, you too will one day be able to dismiss like a boss.
