A long time ago, one of my brothers (and some of his friends) took to using the term ‘bah’ when texting each other. This was… maybe a decade ago? Maybe more. Anyways, I asked him why they were using it and his response was just a shrug and “It’s the new ‘meh’.”
I found this hysterical for some reason. So much so that here we are, all these years later, and I decided to do a single panel ‘comic’ with the concept.
It’s okay – you can say it.
“Bah.”
stopped by at random to look at your art, and this really made me laugh. Isn’t “Bah” more dismissive than “meh?”
“Do you want a cup of coffee?”
“Meh.” (I can take it or leave it)
“Bah.” (I refute your offer. A pox on your coffee. Fie!)
Awww – thanks!
I agree – I do think Bah is more dismissive than Meh. Of course, as I get older, more set in my ways, and generally more of a grump, I suspect that makes it more… probable? Emotionally accurate? Something like that. ;P
