Imagine how deranged someone would sound calming saying “I’m very whelmed by this”

I actually know someone who says this, or at least they used to.

I’ve said “this is very… Whelming” as a sort of insult that it’s particularly middle of the road.

Almost always just for a bit of a personal chuckle since it sounds funny to me.

Judging from my memory of the documentary evidence, those teenage girls might have been quite Mean to boot!
