Its also the sign for "doesn't matter." I guess it all depends on context.

I'm also not an interpreter, still a student, so sometimes even without other problems, I just don't have the skill or speed. But yes, my goal is to give all the information. I don't abbreviate because I think someone is stupid, but because I can't convey it all.
I don't have a problem with that. That's a little different from what I meant.

Question Oohh.. My......god!

a cut - off topic in conversations by saying "nevermind"; lets move on to new issues or topics to talk about. although, theres always a chances to come back to a recents topic as if its necessary, people says "nevermind" all the time around in the world. just cause they wanted to cut it when they couldnt understand or know what themselves were saying; let alone "nevermind" upon to relived the issues. who doesnt want to say nevermind all times? quit complaing and move to new topics. oh wait, nevermind this a "nevermind" thread. oh man, i said neverminds over 9 times on this paragraph! uhh.....nevermind what i was trying to explain, i got lost in my thoughts! even theres a defination of meaning on "nevermind" so do u need me to lecturing on it? hmm, nevermind that, either.

'Never mind' is not always used as a rude word.
Example:
woman: Honey, can you help me find my eyeglasses?
Man: Sure <rummaging through pile of papers on desk>
little girl: Momma, I found it.
woman: Honey? never mind.. Jane found it. thanks Honey

It's not my fault you've been banned from every major forum online at least once. It's not my fault you don't have any friends. It's not my fault you are horribly misinformed about the topics you attempt to discuss. Develop a sense of humour. Stop wasting AD server space. Your unintelligence is not worthy of the few kilobytes your text takes up.



On the subject at hand, I HATE 'nevermind'... But I acknowledge that I've used it in the case where the person doesn't know about the topic... They can't understand because the don't have any background in the subject.
Give me a break.....

I had to wait for someone to start fun...Bingo so I started next....

Tell me why you did not start negativity on AJ? Is that a reason why you are protecting your friend? So that means you are a favorism....
