'meh'

There appear to be a few words that have an abundance of meanings; most of these depend on context or expression. Pretty much it is an expression of indifference. Since 'meh' is such a more than a word, and closer to an expression it is more fluid and dynamic when using it in speech. In fact, you can use it in almost every context.

Meh is quickly becoming my favorite word. It can seriously be used in about every context. Case-in-point:

"How was your day?" - Meh
"What movie do you want to watch?" - Meh
"I'm so unmotivated." - Meh

I could go on but then this would be to long.

Oh, and fyi you can have a conversation using only "meh" as a response. My friend Lalita and I had one were I said "meh" and she said "oi". Awesome

That is so true. Borba and I often communicate entirely in 'meh.' It is sad that college has driven us to that point.
