Let’s talk about meh, maybe

July 31st, 2008

Meh.

It’s a word.  It’s a sound.  It’s an expression of near-apathy.

Definition of meh :.

(mÄ“’)

1. (n.) A multi-purpose response, primarily used to imply a degree of indifference. Tone of voice and circumstance often implies a meaning. Can be used when you don’t want to answer an awkward or embarrassing question, or if you just plain have nothing else to say, and you want the other person to interpret the “meh” however he/she chooses. As in: Q: “What do you think of my new dress?” A: “Meh.” or Q: “What do you want to do tonight?” A: “Meh.”

Thanks for pointing out this definition go to Cruel Dave who would be thrilled to know that I’m still tricking my friends into playing more than half-and-half of the games he taught me.
