Whatever!!!!!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808) 6 years ago

Do you say this in response to someone when you do not like what they are doing or saying? Do you find this word offensive?
I learned when I was in the military, that the word "Whatever" was found offensive and I didn't even know it!
But since learning and taking a deeper look, I too find it offensive and teach my children that it is not to be used unless it is used as a proper word in a proper sentence.
Example of proper way: Do you want a chocolate chip cookie or a oatmeal raisin cookie? Response...I will take whatever you have, I like them both.
Example of offensive: Please don't do that. Response...You know, WHATEVER! (As the person walks away.)

it depends how you phrase the word for it to be offesive...like "what do you want to do? i dont know whatever..." thats not offesive but when critisizing someone or you pointing something out to them they say "whatever" when you say whatever the rude way your politely telling them to go f themself...


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808)  6 years ago

Your exactly right! LOL That is how I view it too. :)

myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808)  6 years ago

Even though it is a rule in my house not to use that word, my 16 yr old is pushing his limits. LOL

I don't think whatever is offensive, so much as aggravating, depending on the tone of voice someone says it in.

Oh I hate this word! It is currently my oldest daughter's favorite response. Everytime she uses it I get on to her. I have explained to her that it is rude and disrespectful. I have even used it on her when she talks to me to show her how it feels. But she continues to use it. I am about 2 whatevers from forcefeeding her a bar of soap.


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808)  6 years ago

How about that cayenne pepper stuff. LOL


myLot reputation of 34/100. zukepr (11761)  6 years ago

Yes I still have my Jabenero! and I use it but I think they are become immune to it or its getting weak. Can jabenero lose its potentcy after a while?

i don't use the word whatever. my boyfriend will say whatever when he knows i am right about something, and he can't come up with anything to say back. it's like i prove him wrong about something, and instead of saying, yeah, you're right, he just says whatever. it is kind of a smart-alec answer.


myLot reputation of 92/100. brokentia (7808)  6 years ago

And when he has to say whatever instead of telling you that you are right...it just seems to push that button a bit more, huh? yea, my partner will do that from time to time with me. But I have told him that he knows it offends me.
there are times when he will say it to me and I will ask him if he is just trying to make me more angry. And the funny thing it, he hates it too. LOL So there are times I will do it right back and walk away. But...never around the kids because they see it as a potty mouth. :)

I do find that I use that word a lot...mainly when I am mad at my boyfriend..and I just can't take talking to him anymore...or it is a reply to something he has said..that I feel is wrong....but I never thought of it as an offensive word?


myLot reputation of 97/100. wellamoose (1144)  6 years ago

I never thought of it as offensive either. I use it a lot actually. I use it on my kids when they won't stop arguing about something. I use it on my husband when I'm sick of arguing with him. I grew up in the 80's. That was a staple! I'm sorry people find this word so repulsive, but Whatever!

Well it is really irritating and rude
Siriously if someone is talking to you and you say whatever it shows a sign of disagreement as well as disrespect
I admit i do use it sometimes but then i do refrain myself from its usage

Yes I understand whatever seems to have a street talk meaning which may be considered offensive.
