Whatever?
I hate it.
With a passion.
Eight letters that make my blood boil, my face red, and my adrenaline level increase.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about Merriam Webster's definition of:
1 a: anything or everything that "take whatever you want" b: no matter what "whatever he says, they won't believe him" c: whatnot "enjoys skiing, hiking, or whatever"
2: what 1a(1) -used to express astonishment or perplexity "whatever do you mean by that"
I am talking about the word certain people use to dismiss someone,
The word that says, "I don't care".
The word that says, "I don't consider You and/or what you have to say as being important."
I'm talking about the word pronounced "What-EVAH!" or "WHATEVRRRRR!"
Every time I hear someone say the word with that negative accompanying tone, I don't hear "whatever", I hear
"FUCK YOU!"
"Whatever" is the new "DUH!"
How many more words are we going to come up with, or twist, to show disrespect or disdain to one another?
Whatever, my ass! I am here, my words are relevant, and I will not be dismissed!
Fer-shurrr!
