John Hodgman at Radio & TV Correspondents’ Dinner

Monday 23 February 2009

Did I ever tell you people how much I hate the word ‘meh’? Nothing announces ‘I have missed the point’ more than that word. It is the essence of blinkered Internet malcontentism. And a rejection of joy. By definition, it may mean disinterest (although simple silence would be a more damning and sincere response, in that case), but in use, it almost universally seems to signal: ‘I am just interested enough to make one last joyless, nitpicky swipe and then disappear.’ It’s part of the toxic Internet art of constant callous one upsmanship. And it is a sort of art, but not for me. John Hodgman (via bryanmckay)
