Does anyone else hate the term 'meh'?

[Chuggachuggatoottoot]

What is it anyway and since when did it actually become a word? I don't really know why I find it irritating I just do.

Nope. What do you use instead?

MEH....... doesn't bother me.

Yeah, it’s a bit ‘meh’.

It's just such a perfect word when used correctly though - love it!

Yes! I hate it equally written and spoken. Disinterest and apathy and all that.

The Simpsons made it popular

Meh, doesn’t bother me.

Never heard it in real life, seen it on MN and nowhere else, heard it once on the radio.

It's not a word I'm planning to add to my vocabulary.

Yes I find it irritating. Anything that becomes a popular catchphrase annoys me. “It’s all good”, “good times”, “amazeballs” etc. I know a few people who constantly use all of these, makes me think they lack the capacity for original thought.

It's English for bof.

Don't think I've actually heard it spoken in RL, and very very rarely written in text, email, FB etc. Not been exposed enough to it to irritate.

I think it is quite descriptive.

My children's vocabulary appears to be declining. Unfortunately "meh", "nah" and "whatever" have made it into their top ten responses to everything. They're a joy.

I think it’s awfully childish (teenagerish?) but sometimes it really just does the trick on explaining how I feel/what I think.

In conclusion; I like it.

Meh.

Well, it’s a bit,

Meh

I'm a bit meh about it.

Sometimes I see it used to mean something else, I'm not sure what, but apathy wouldn't be in context. Similarly I often see instances of 'ugh', where yuckiness isn't the observation being made, and I'm not entirely sure what is. I hate both of these, because it makes me wonder if the words have gained a new meaning outside my line of vision as a middle-aged old trout.

No, I like it. It conveys exactly what I feel about something.

Meh is a great word.

I never use it, but I like it. I always think of it as having New York Jewish origins, not sure why.

It has to be written as Meh though

I cannot abide Guys . "Hey guys/ you guys/ Great to see you guys "

I am female . I am quite obviously female.
I am not, never have been and never will be a "Guy" .

Meh .

Yes - it's often used in a rudely dismissive way.

It's one my my favourites actually.
