463 Entries for “mean”

  1. Mean girls. That’st the first thing that comes to mind. Then, the “mean old average”–that’s what teachers used to say to remind us what the math term means. Weird, it came up again. Mean–as in I mean business.

  2. How is mean today’s word
    as it was yesterday’s?
    I’ve already stretched it

    to its limit

    ya know what I mean?

  3. I don’t think I know what it means to matter. Does it really matter if we just live and die. Do we always mean to be special at birth. What does everything in life mean. And if things don’t matter and meanings don’t matter. Then what’s the point to everything?

  4. mean is a word that gives every object, person and word a purpose and understanding… it also tries to define a lot of every day things so it is easier for us as people to understand them. mean is the quality, purpose and definition of everything in the world.

  5. People that have nothing better to do with their lives but to ruin others. The most depressed people in this world probably. Disliked by many.

  6. Thade laughed enthusiastically. “Thorn’s not mean, she’s just hateful.” Ja’k perked a brow at him, a frown sliding across his face. “No, I’m pretty sure she’s heartless.” Beside the two of them, a gentle cough made them jump. Cold, lifeless hands crept across their throats and between them a voice whispered. “She’s perfect.”

  7. Mean has many different meanings (haha). It could be like rude, cruel, etc. Could be the average of a group of numbers. It could be the definition of something. So weird how one word could be interpreted in many different ways.

  8. I didn’t realize it was going to be this way. I never wanted to run again. Run again.. why? I was supposed to be happy. I was suppose to have everything I wanted, and yet still I want more. I want to run. Is it you? Are you mean? Or am I? Who would ever know? I just wish I could make myself stay put some day.

  9. It isn’t so much what you say as it is what you mean when you say it.

  10. what does it mean? I have no idea, or perhaps soemtimes I do. My mind, my life, are blanknesses with no text inscribed upon them…. how do I unpick their significance….?

  11. Mean is such a childish word to explain when someone is being harsh. Or at least that’s my take on it.
    But mean can also be used to explain something.
    Everything has a MEANing.
    Mean is a strange little word, isn’t it?

  12. i have seen many mean people but still wanna treat them in my best way because what goes around comes around.Meaness in not inherited but its a personal triat

  13. I never mean what I say. I’m a paper man too afraid to stay long in one place. I say things under my breath which escape from the side of my mouth. I want you to hear my thoughts and feelings that can’t be said plainly or said to you when surrounded by a crowd. With eyes on mine, I find my tongue twisted, I’m better on paper where it’s safer. Where I can revise making sure I tell no lies. It collects my thoughts like a wind blowing north to south – and everything in between is but more silly heartfelt debris.

  14. I think that my friends are being mean. Everyone wants to schedule my life for me. I am so sick of having no time to even breathe. STOP arranging my life for me PLEASE.

  15. Reminds me of the song from P!nk. Not one of her most popular, but it’s still pretty good. Definitely one of my favorites. Also it’s from one of her most recent albums, Funhouse… good album.

  16. I think that this word is very dificult ’cause you cant say what it means without sounding ridicolulous, is very funny, i dont know what to say.

  17. No one ever seems to get lost in meanness, but everyone claims to struggle with meaning, of life, of intentions of the nasty ways we treat each other.

  18. i hate it when people are mean. they should just be nice. this world is a happy and wonderful and magical place and life is too short to be mean. mean people should change and be nice for a change because being nice is fun and you have lots of friends and you get to do fun things and you are happy and you have less stress and you will die later rather than sooner if you’re smiling.

  19. You had to be mean living around there. If you weren’t you just suffered more. You had to be tough – had to be strong – had to be willing to get your knuckles bloody. It’s all he knew.

  20. He slowly looked away, as if he couldn’t stand to look at her anymore. He seemed so distant. He told her, “we’re different people now.”

  21. When I see “mean” I think lonely. How can people go around being mean and think others want to be around you? Why do people have no regard for others feelings? Why is it so hard to confront “mean” people? Mean = lonely.

  22. I think that when some people are mean, I can’t help but intercede. I feel that I have to step in for the person being picked on. I was picked on myself in elementary school for having some mild nerve problems and now I feel that I have to make up for the people who suffer the same way I did.

  23. some people are just mean. it doesn’t make sense to me. It’s much nicer to be nice. why not try it sometime? it takes more time to think of something mean to say than it does to smile at someone and maybe make their day. if you go around with a bad attitude you feel bad. if you smile you feel better..

  24. you cold hearted fiend.
    It sounds terrible but in attempting to avoid being mean to you I end up shouting, or screaming. It’s all inward. It’s all to myself and my thoughts.
    Just let go.
    And exhale.

  25. I mean that you should leave me alone.
    I mean that I want go to get on with my own life.
    I mean that I don’t want to be tied down to you forever.
    I mean that you should let me breathe.
    I mean that I should have freedom after everything I’ve done for you.
    I mean it’s time I started living for me.
    I mean that I love you but you suffocate me…ALL of you.
    I mean that you should get off my case and let me be.
    I mean that you should stop criticizing everything I say and do or do not do.
    I meant that I want to be alone, thank you very much.
    It may be mean, but it’s what I really mean.

  26. Mean is mean girls, the ones that give that look like you just climb out of the sewer. Mean is when you trust someone and they throw you under the bus. Mean is when you ignore someone who is being kind to you. Mean is the opposite charity. Mean is bound to come back and bite you when you are mean to others.

    by Jessica Gale on 07.11.2011
  27. the world is a mean place .. that’s what we are told each day . but i think otherwise . i think one cant generalize the whole world as mean . hell you cant even classify one person as mean.

  28. When someone is angry,, but they have no reason to be, it is pulling someones hair, or taking advantage of someone who cannot help themselves, it’s cruel and nasty, uncaring and hurtful

    by chris on 07.11.2011
  29. Why do people have to be so mean? It seems meanness comes out of folks who were treated poorly. A response to the mean left in them

  30. Mean what you say. Mean an average word, but with above average meaning. I mean who would think it could have such a powerful meaning?

    by Mark on 07.11.2011

  32. When you decide to vent a little of that dislike for things about yourself at others. Maybe you judge them harshly, maybe you just decide that you’ll say something superior sounding to them. Either way, you’re being an ass.

    Being mean is far from friend-making.

    Doesn’t stop us all from doing it though, especially when jealous or hurt.

    by Greg on 07.11.2011
  33. he is mean. you are judging. why is he mean? what is his perspective? everyone is good by nature. try and help him. Be compassionate. Do not be mean back.

    by Carlos on 07.11.2011
  34. How our expressions lose their original thought. How what we intend to say vanishes from the mouth of the speaker to the ear of the listener. How we strive to achieve the sublime and yet we can not even go beneath what is meant on the surface.

  35. i dont like you, i just want to hate you and kill you!!!! You are so mean and you bullie me. I CANT SPELL>>…THIS IS SO MEAN!!!!!! Mean on the other hand could refer to he mean or average of a set of numbers…..NAHHH! I HATE YOU!

  39. There are a lot of mean people in this world, but that is not the only thin mean means. When finding the average of numbers you are finding the mean. So there you have it, mean can be used in several ways.

  40. Some people are mean and others are not. This all has to do with the aditude of the person that is being mean, and how they choice to act about what is going on in there lives. To be nice simply want to be nice to be mean just simply choose to be mean. It is all up to you on how you act and react to the situation, and why you act that way.
    If you want to let others affect you and you want to be mean then you will but if you choose to not let it affect you then it wont and you can always choose to be mean or nice. It is up to you not those around you in any way.
    If you choose to be mean then you will be mean. So if you want then you can be nice and you dont have to choose to be mean. So choose to be nice and choose to never be mean to anyone for any reason or problem that you feel that you should be mean for. Let it be up to you if you are mean or nice. Do you best to choose to be nice and not mean.
