So, the hint is ":baaa_", fill in the blank, with not and negate in bold.
Technically, the underscore is NOT a 'blank'. As such, ":baaa :" would be accurate, in that there is a blank space.
However, it is generally accepted that an underscore "_" denotes a 'blank' and/or reserved marker/space denoting that portion needs-be filled in with something. In this instance, the replacement "something" is assumed to be that of something readily available on a modern English computer keyboard.

Of the hint & riddle provided, one may reasonably conclude the letter 'n' is the "something" to replace the reserved marker/space. So, here we go:

:baaaan:

Hmmm, that didn't work.

Well, now that I've analytically slayed the hint, let's try more "something(s)" ~
