Okay this is off topic, but in my Plan B boredom I thought of starting this thread.

Okay now I know y'all have used this word at one time if your life. It's really a love hate relationship that I have with this word as I am sure we all do. What is that word you ask? Its......drum roll please :twobyfour: :wavingsanta: :twobyfour: :wavingsanta:

....."WHATEVER".

There you have it. Feel free to post all the great ways the word "WHATEVER" can be used, or if you'd rather all the annoying ways you can't stand it being used.

For me, when H is being a bratty Plan B'd walkaway I find saying "WHATEVER" really helps me, I feel a sense of clam hit me whatever whatever whatever rotflmao But then there is the other side of WHATEVER that occasionally comes out of my teenager that I really could do without.

Everyone raise your glasses and toast to the lovely word of "WHATEVER".
Disclaimer: This thread and its writer and the word Whatever by no means express to take no action or use the word in abuse to others. If used in connection with poopy diapered WS's who are throwing fits due to frosting withdrawals during Plan B you can this week only earn bonus points. Void where prohibited....

LOL I heard that somewhere thought it would sound really cool what do you think? LMAO rotflmao

It used to drive my WS nuts when she'd ask me what I wanted for dinner and I'd say....Whatever!

I've found with my kids (who are GROWN by the way), "whatever" means:

1. I'm not talking about this anymore.
2. You're right but I'm not going to admit it.
3. What you're saying is BS.
4. My feelings are hurt but I'm not going to let it show.

:RollieEyes:

"Whatever" to me means "if that's what you believe, there's nothing I can do to change it."
