That's just what those meh Canadians want you to think.

I like the word "bah." I find it quite useful.

I prefer "ih", which can mean anything from "meh" to "ugh" to "ow" to "um...", etc.

I couldn't read that post again...last time is still too vivid in my mind.

Unfortunately, I've caught myself "mehing" a bit this last year or so. :oops: I must be becoming disillusioned. :lol:

I only use "meh" in text messages. I can't imagine actually saying it.

And there you have it.

Text.

Messages.

What sort of thing do we use for text messages?

A cell phone.

What revolutionized the ability to send text messages via cell phone?

The BlackBerry.

Who created the BlackBerry?

The damned, dirty Canadians, that's who!

I've started using bleagh as a substitute for meh out of respect for Danlo's aversion to meh. :P

A friend of mine says "blargh" a lot. She even has it as part of her license plate on her car. :D

That's right! Mwah hahahahahaha. Now pay up (and in colorful currency, too!)

One of my favorite Dr. Cox rants from the TV show Scrubs:
"If you don't start taking your medication you are going to die! And I don't mean like in "If I don't get a date to the prom I am just going to die!". I mean dead. And if that is not clear enough for you then I can send you a text from my Blackberry or my Blueberry or my Chuck Berry. Although technically Chuck Berry is a black Berry..."
... nobody I know.

I assumed that UT is someplace that dlb would promote.

As the direct result of this thread, I think I will change my sig to BCakaDWakaD - because it sums up my alter egos and is fun to pronounce - it makes me sound Zulu.

BC aka DW aka D

BCakaDWakaD!

The dictionary defines "meh" as an expression of indifference or boredom, or an adjective meaning mediocre or boring. Examples given by the dictionary include "the Canadian election was so meh."
Reminds me of that South Park episode where Canada goes on strike...
