At the end of the day, you know, it is what it is. Whatever!

From usatoday:

'Whatever' is, you know, annoying, but 'it is what it is'

If you’re like, whatever, don't be surprised if, you know, someone gives you a dirty look, or whatever.

That's because, according to a recent Marist Poll, Americans find "whatever" to be the most annoying word -- by far. In fact, 47% think so.

"You know" is second, at 25%, and 11% can't tolerate "it is what it is."

The poll says 7% would like to ban "anyway" from all conversation and 2% are fed up with "at the end of the day."

While "whatever" is clearly scorned nationally, Marist did detect some differences in tolerance-level by region.

In the Midwest, 55% are, like, totally against "whatever," while only 19% disapprove of "you know."

But in the Northeast, only 35% find "whatever" most annoying while 32% are fed up with "you know."

That was the most annoying post I personally have ever read. Of course it could just be the region I live in. ;D

Yup, whatever. At the end of the day it just is what it is and ya can't change that.

America has developed a new language yeah other than Spanish and not for the better in recent years. It's a part of the dumbing down of America via the school system that those in charge are working so hard to implement. Those powerful super rich folks in charge want the old America to fail, to end and to be replaced with their new world order which has them as the ruling class and the rest of us as their slaves via a new fuedal system like it was in days of old. They want to be royalty and us peasants.
