Whatever! You Know, At the End of the Day It Is What It Is

Dude, like that's just the way 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."

Whatever.
